The importance of recognizing Black history and culture has been the forefront of discussion more than ever, and a growing number of people have been taking active steps to educate themselves further on Black history and culture.
The Studio Museum in Harlem is all about celebrating creativity across the arts among African American creatives. The museum was founded in 1968 by a group of artists, community activists and philanthropists, and has become a hub for local, national and international artists of African descent and work inspired by African and Black culture.

The Studio Museum in Harlem is an American contemporary art museum which is devoted to the work of African-Americans artists of the 19th and 20th centuries.
