(ARLINGTON, VA) Last May, the Columbia Pike Partnership and the Black Heritage Museum of Arlington found a new home at 3045B Columbia Pike, Arlington, VA. Today, we are both thrilled to announce that we are finally ready to welcome the community into our new home after a few months of setting up. In celebration of this milestone, both organizations will have a joint grand opening celebration on September 16th from 4:00 to 6:00 pm. We invite the community to join us for this celebration. This event has a limited capacity, and we encourage those interested in joining us to RSVP as soon as possible.
We are also happy to announce our official hours of operation. The Columbia Pike Partnership facilities will be open to the public on Fridays from 1:00 to 4:00 pm, and the Black Heritage Museum of Arlington doors will be open every Thursday from 3:00 – 5:00 pm and on Saturdays from 2:00 to 5:00 pm. Appointments are available upon request.
“The Black Heritage Museum of Arlington is excited about the grand re-opening of our museum in a new space! We are so thankful to so many of you, who have been with us every step of the way so that this day would finally come again for us to display information and be a voice to many unsung Arlington heroes who have certainly a hand in making Arlington the great county/city it is today.”
– Dr. Scott Taylor, Ph.D., President of the Black Heritage Museum of Arlington
“We are very thankful for our incredible partners, board of directors, community, and volunteers, and we are especially thankful to ECDC and Dr. Teferra for all their support to make this move possible. We are pleased to be able to open our doors back to the community, and we invite everyone to visit us. This space is made for you, and we want to hear from you. We want to gather your ideas, feedback, and opportunities to support the businesses, individuals, and visitors as we continue to work to improve our Columbia Pike community.”
