Tag along as we visit the Haitian American Museum of Chicago.
The Haitian American Museum of Chicago (HAMOC) exists to promote and preserve Haitian art, culture, history and community in Chicago and beyond, since Haiti occupies a central place in Chicago’s history through John Baptiste Pointe DuSable, who is the first non-indigenous settler of Chicago. HAMOC features an online and onsite oral history installation of Professor Courtney Joseph’s Haitian American oral history archive.
Sponsored by the Humanities 2020 Mellon Grant.
Fieldtrips will run on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays between March 8 and 25, 12:00 pm to 6:00 pm.
