The Blanchard House Museum's new exhibit will be:

"Florida African American History 101"

The Blanchard House Museum is excited to invite you to become aware of more “untold and untaught” African American history.  Accurate and complete Florida history cannot be told unless it includes the African presence since its beginning.
