Corporate Support

DuSable Museum of African American History is revered as the nation’s first independent African American history museum and the only major independent cultural institution in Illinois dedicated to the plight and prominence of African Americans. Vital to our ability to immerse our visitors in the depth and diversity of African American heritage, we seek to create mutually beneficial partnerships with foundations and corporations.
