The
Haitian Heritage Museum (HHM) is a not for profit organization that
is
committed to highlighting and preserving Haiti's rich culture and
heritage locally,
nationally and internationally. Our goal is to provide a cultural
Mecca for Little
Haiti where individuals outside of our community and within our community
boundaries can come to enjoy beautiful Haitian art, historic artifacts,
ethnic sounds
of Haitian music, view Haitian films and enjoy a collection of Haitian
Literary
works. By providing this platform as a linkage to Haitian Americans
all over the
Diaspora and educating the public about the phenomenal contributions
that Haitian
Americans made as a people, this will in turn create a legacy for
the future
generations of young Haitian Americans.
The Haitian Heritage Museum (HHM) was inspired by the need to link
all Haitian
Americans in the Diaspora together. HHM will serve as a catalyst for
urban
revitalization and will inspire community development and participation
in Little
Haiti. The development will foster of HHM the new emerging identity
of Little
Haiti, which will promote economic growth and urban vitality. This
platform will
continue to enlighten and enrich South Florida's rich dynamics of
cultural diversity
in the arts. |
