The idea for African Inspired! Art Gallery and Cultural Center began in April 2004 due to the discovery of very significant and interesting African American culture in New Bern, North Carolina but very limited resources available to learn more.
Mission
To transform lives through art. To instill
Vision, Inspiration, Purpose and Power within individuals, through youth education and community outreach programs.
Vision
Our vision is to bring an African Inspired! Art Gallery and Cultural Center to areas where none is currently located and successfully
address unmet educational, social and cultural needs within those communities.
We will become a great resource for all.
We believe that art can heal, uplift, educate, equalize, and save lives. We will accomplish these things through cultural events, in a fun, enjoyable and safe environment.
African Inspired! is a Non Profit, 501(c)3 corporation.
