Alliance of HBCU Museums & Galleries

Recognizing the enormity of the task of enhancing efforts to diversify the arts community, and recognizing the other organizations and programs that support this effort, the Alliance works with key strategic partners to develop dynamic programs for our students. Through our annual diversity workshops and other collaborative meetings, we convene our key partners and other interested parties in order to facilitate, foster, and encourage collaboration, learn from best practices, address the challenges of our respective organizations or institutions, and discuss and brainstorm collaborative diversity initiatives for our students.

The Alliance supports efforts to protect, preserve, conserve, catalogue, and digitize collections held by its HBCU member institutions. Through ongoing conservation efforts, our team of curators, conservators, and collections specialists work diligently to stabilize fragile HBCU materials and apply best practices in preventive care.
