George Washington Carver Museum & Cultural Center

The George Washington Carver Museum and Cultural Center is a historical preservation site that is dedicated to the Collection, Documentation, Preservation, Study, and Dissemination of the History and Culture of Africans and Americans of African Descent in Arizona.

Affectionately known as The Carver Museum (and formerly the Phoenix Union High School), we carry out its mission through exhibitions, archives/collections and a variety of community educational programs designed to explore the roles of African derived Americans in shaping the history of Phoenix and the state of Arizona.

We are located in the Historic Warehouse District in Downtown Phoenix, Arizona.

The former Phoenix Union High School, along with the land it sits on, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.
