The National Center for Afro-American Artists (NCAAA) is a renowned institution in New England that celebrates the artistic heritage of African-American and African diasporan cultures through visual and performing arts. Since its establishment in 1968, NCAAA has provided a platform for established and underrepresented artists, fostering social justice, unity, and artistic expression. Located in the historic Abbotsford Estate in Roxbury, Boston, NCAAA houses a vast collection of over 3,000 objects and produces the acclaimed Black Nativity, a tradition that has captivated Boston for over fifty years.
As NCAAA emerges from the pandemic, it is taking a contemplative approach to its future, recognizing the need to reassess its financial and operating model to better serve its mission. While pausing public visitation to undergo necessary repairs, the organization is actively working with supporters and partners to develop a reimagined institution that remains relevant for future generations of artists, scholars, visitors, and supporters. With a commitment to preserving its rich history and quality programming, NCAAA aims to continue existing as a valuable community asset for years to come.
