About the event
As Washtenaw County commemorates its 200th Anniversary, the AACHM is proud to present a premier tour series that places the African American narrative at the heart of our county’s history. Sponsored by Washtenaw County, this series is a vital exploration of the Black families, veterans, and visionaries whose "Grace and Grit" built the foundations of our community over the last two centuries.
We aren't just celebrating a date; we are honoring the people whose stories have often been moved to the margins. Join us as we bring these legacies to the center stage of the Washtenaw Bicentennial.
