In
May 1999, the African/African-American
Historical Society secured a lease on
the John Dixie Building, located at 436 East Douglas Avenue in Fort
Wayne, Indiana. The 10 year lease was from the Fort Wayne Interdenominational
Ministerial Alliance. There was major work to be done on the building.
With the help and donations of individuals, groups, and organizations
the museum became a reality. The first phase of the museum opened on
February 1, 2000 and the second phase opened on June 1, 2000. The
museum has ten major exhibits.
