The National Great Blacks In Wax Museum

It’s an interesting exhibit. They really tried explaining the African Americans narrative from being brought on the ships to present day. It’s just a pity the building was undergoing repairs outside so we almost missed it and the wax figures some looked worn out. It’s a great place to visit to learn so much history but the place looked quite worn out in need of funding or help.

They are currently doing renovations, but the museum was a good place to visit. The renovations will be done by the end of the year if you wanted to wait to see the updated facility. The museum showcased a variety of influential African American figures. It also showed how slaves were treated before and when they came to America. They also hold tours of the place. The wax figures looked eerily real. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who would like to learn more about black history.

Such an eye-opening, unique experience. I'd love to see this museum expanded to more space and exhibitions. There's a free gravel parking lot nearby, which was convenient. Overall, I'm satisfied with this museum and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND to anyone!

Great Meusuem, I am a person of color and did not know most of the people in the museum that were a big contribution to helping colored people succeed.
Just a word of caution, the ship and downstairs show sensitive information and art works, think twice if you are going to bring a young one there. All in all props to the artists who made things work!
