Black history is Philly history.
The City of Brotherly Love celebrates Black culture all year long, and Black History Month offers a special opportunity to reflect on the Black experience, commemorate the many contributions of Black figures throughout history, and pave the way for a more just and equitable future.
This Black History Month, learn about the works of Black trailblazers with special programming and exhibitions at iconic Philly institutions like The African American Museum in Philadelphia and The Franklin Institute.
Celebrate Black artists with special performances at the Academy of Music, and discover a new favorite shop or restaurant while supporting the many Black-owned businesses in Philadelphia.
