The staff was very friendly. They gave detailed history of the building and told wonderful historical stories about the area as well. I went on educational tour. Next time I'll be bringing my family.

Small museum that does a great job introducing the long and continuing journey for African American civil rights in Maryland. There is a beautiful stained glass created from broken pieces of original stained glass from the church building there that was the start of the museum. The video telling the history of how the church eventually became the museum is interesting but long and difficult to hear at times. The staff we met were very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Recommended!

I have lived here in Baltimore-MD for 9yrs. I did not know about this wonderful museum. Wonderful piece of history and a chance to learn something new. You can also host events here. Never be afraid to learn something new.

I learned so much! I also really liked the chill vibe of the place. There was a coffee lounge dedicated to a badass state senator and a lots of spots to sit down and read a provided book. We loved our visit!

Good display on Jumping the Broom. My parents were recipients of this exhibit.

Nichelle Mackall

Great place and friendly staff. I love learning about history and to compare then and know is mindblowing. To see history and hear dialogue from the people in that time is moving. We as a people have to remember that are ancestors worked together to fight for what is right, no matter of skin color. My oldest daughter was moved to see and hear of all the wrongs that actually took place. We read about them and I tell her that yes things are still happening, but people of all shades stood up for what's just then and now. It's just our duty to learn and never forget history with a big heart. I will be back!!!

Gloria Bailey

My family and I visited the Banneker-Douglass Museum in Annapolis, Maryland. It was a wonderful and educational historical day tour for my children. My son's middle name is Douglass after the historical and rich history of the Bailey family in Maryland, Georgia and Ohio and lineage of Frederick Douglass ancestors whom I had the pleasure of meeting in Atlanta, Georgia several years ago. Thank you very much. You were extraordinarily kind to us. --Gloria Jean Harden-Bailey.

Wonderful informational, if there was a fireplace and cups of tea, it would have felt like home. I receivedt some geneology suggestions for trying to move forward with my African American heritage.
