The Museum represents the beginning of Oscar Mokeme and Art Aleshire's dream of establishing a museum to preserve African tribal art. It is New England's only museum devoted exclusively to Sub-Saharan African Tribal Art. On display is a world-class collection of tribal masks and artifacts representing over 1,000 years of African history. Its mission is to educate others about the lives and beliefs of Sub-Saharan African people, to interpret and preserve the Museum's unique collection of African art and artifacts, and to enrich the communities of Maine and beyond through the celebration of diversity.
