About Jane & Littleton Mitchell Center for African American Heritage
Mission: A fundraiser for Delaware Historical Society. The Mitchell Center's mission is to collect, preserve, research, and present for public enrichment the history and heritage of Delaware's African Americans.
The Mitchell Center for African American Heritage, operated by the Delaware Historical Society, offers an expansive exploration of the African American experience from 1639 to the present through artifacts, oral history interviews, music, and art. These diverse perspectives of African Americans' struggle for freedom and dignity strengthens our state-wide community, as we preserve, share, and promote the history, heritage, and culture of Delaware.
