Seacoast African American Cultural Center

Seacoast African American Cultural Center

The mission of the Seacoast African American Cultural Center is to celebrate the lives and achievements of black people, with emphasis on the unique story of African Americans in the New Hampshire and Maine seacoast area, and to infuse young people with an appreciation of their history and culture.

SAACC has continuous collaborations with such educational institutions as the University of New Hampshire in addition to collaborations with Portsmouth schools and other school systems within the seacoast.

We have also cultivated working and cultural relationships with various organizations, business establishments and individuals which includes the Portsmouth Music Hall, the Currier Museum, local artists, poets and musicians.

These collaborations and special relationships allow us to present quality programming and exhibits.
