The New York City based museum was founded 24 years ago in western Massachusetts. After years of presenting in New England we went national, appearing at various venues throughout North America. Some of the locales include cultural expos, professional conventions and educational conferences. Learning institutions and community organizations are among the most significant places showcased. The last 10 years the exhibit has been touring internationally.
Is to develop racial pride, promote racial understanding, and provide a new motivation for learning.
To collect, preserve, exhibit and interpret cultural materials which illustrate the achievements and history of African Americans and Africans in the world.
Black Inventors Museum goal is to bring these significant contributors out of the shadows and towards receiving the recognition they truly deserve. It is vital and essential that our exhibits travel to places where this information wouldn't normally be shared or taught. The Black Inventors Museum graciously compliments all science and American history, Black History curricula, while promoting positive images and self-esteem in those who seek to learn about the discoveries and challenges of these great Black men and women inventors.
Whatever the mind can conceive, the mind can achieve, our goal is to continue to find ways to inspire and motivate young people to believe in and achieve their dreams. We recognize and understand that racism has culturally deprived our youth. We also know that once our youth know better ultimately they would do better. By us highlighting achievements in history that are not normally taught in school is the key to their success. Utilizing examples of ordinary people making extraordinary contributions to the world gives young people the inspiration that is needed. We believe young people need role models that they can identify with so they can see themselves in the big picture and can contribute to it. And Black Inventors and scientists are an excellent example.
Black Inventions is proud to announce its 25th annual College tour themed “Black Inventors Matters”. This multimedia presentation is a tribute to the unsung heroes, Black inventors and innovators internationally. Our exhibit will travel to over 100 cities throughout the United States and abroad to Canada, the Caribbean, Africa and the United Kingdom.
Many of the things people use daily are the brainchild of a Black inventor. The golf tee, automatic traffic light, cellular phone and dustpan all were created by Blacks. The mail box, pencil sharpener, super Soaker water gun (that gross over $1 billion dollars) and the world’s fastest computer-peaking at 3.1 billion calculations per second-were created by the minds and hands of Black inventors.
Over 150 authentic artifacts are represented in the collection which includes: Patent designs, personal letters, rare photographs, brief biographies also featured are motivational placards and video documentaries. To find out how your school or university can book the Traveling Exhibit click below
This is an excellent display. People of all ages and color can benefit from visiting this display! Thank you!
The students and teachers really enjoyed the exhibit, as it was very informative and educational for everyone. The teachers are still talking about the exhibit and the children continue to share the things that they remember from the exhibit. I highly recommend this enlightening exhibit.
I thought the video and exhibit was outstanding. As the school-to-career teacher. I can see the spin-off into career education; what a wonderful way to show children how an idea coupled with enthusiasm and desire can turn into a life’s quest, a career!!
The exhibit promotes positive images and self- esteem in both children and adults.
This Exhibit is awesome! Thank you for allowing God to use you. Obedience is better than sacrifice
This was a fabulous presentation. I feel that all middle schools and high schools should be exposed to this exhibit.
Very informative. This is the type of stuff that should be taught in schools about African Americans besides slavery and Martin Luther King, Jr.
As a young, Black Male, This Exhibition has given me a reason to hold-my head higher than ever!!!
The exhibit was great! The visual aspects and patent numbers really bring the point home. I also appreciate the comprehensive nature of the exhibit. I haven’t seen anything like this before!
This is amazingly great….. Wow! We definitely need more things like this on campus.
Absolutely profound!
