The Beach Institute African-American Cultural Center, founded in 1865, is Savannah's flagship museum for African-American arts, history, and cultural preservation. Originally established as the first official school for African-Americans in Savannah, the Institute now serves as a vital hub for showcasing the rich heritage and contributions of African-Americans in the region.
The King-Tisdell Cottage Historic Site and Artifacts Gallery, built in 1896, is dedicated to preserving the history and culture of African-Americans in Savannah. Founded by Civil Rights Leader W.W. Law, the restored Victorian-styled Cottage offers visitors a glimpse into Savannah's African-American commercial history and culture through exhibits, artifacts, and maps from the late 1800s and early 20th Century.
