To assist with its continued growth of exhibits, the Texas African American Museum in Tyler received two protective glass cases from a Dallas-based museum design firm with East Texas connections. On Wednesday, Darryl Bihm, vice president of sales and marketing for Museum Arts in Dallas, brought the donated cases after recently seeing an article about the Texas African American Museum in Tyler.

Take the TAAM Fundraiser Challenge!!!!

This the floor plan designed by Braham Architect. The renovation of the facility will cost approximately $300,000. Invite family and friends to participate in this worthy cause.

WITH YOUR GIFT OF $100 OR MORE, YOU WILL RECEIVE A COPY OF THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN HISTORICAL NEWS JOURNAL AND A TEXAS AFRICAN-AMERICAN T-SHIRT. IN EFFECT SINCE JANUARY 1, 2021.

The African-American Historical News Journal is a compilation of newspaper articles and firsthand accounts of our nation's history. What makes the content of ‘The Journal’ so important is that the information is not widely known, largely because it is not widely taught in our schools. Whether in the African-American community or the community at large, the information regarding the important impact of African-Americans to the founding of our country is a story all should know. If we don’t know the whole story, then we don’t know the real story of the founding of our country. If you don’t know the real story, then you don’t know the whole story. It is imperative that all of us, as Americans, know the entire story of the founding of our country.

Join us in our Fundraiser Challenge!
