Jacksonville African-American History Museum Hosting Summer Reading Series
The Jacksonville African American History Museum is back open and is ramping up a new summer reading program for children. The history museum went down early in the Spring after a pipe burst causing major water damage. African-American History Museum Board President Alberta Robinson says that as a part of the restoration and renovation of the nearly 200-year old Asa Talcott House came a brand new space for children: “We decided to bring book readings on Wednesdays. It’s called the Unity Club Reading Series, and we do it every Wednesday from 1-2PM in the new children’s room. It’s a multi-cultural reading room where we read not only books about African-American history but about other cultures, too and their history also.”
