In Charleston, it’s direly important to understand the history that cultivated this city in order to craft a clearer picture based on its historical significance. You can do just that by visiting the new International African American Museum downtown! IAAM exposes the unvarnished stories of generations of the African American experience well across the United States and various colonized areas throughout the world. The founders of the recently-built museum aim to “challenge, illuminate, inspire, and move people to action”. 

IAAM is open to the public Tuesday through Sunday from 10am to 5pm (last reservation is at 4pm). The museum also offers South Carolina residents a local discount. Browse the website below to purchase your tickets today!
