Join us for the Black History and Culture of Fort Greene tour led by Suzanne Spellen with a special stop at Brooklyn Paramount. Working together with local historian, Suzanne Spellen, and our Tour Advisory Committee, we develop and refine the route and educational content to help retell Fort Greene’s deep roots in Black history and culture for a personal, on-the-ground look at this important historical context.
Last month, participants had the opportunity to join the Fort Greene Black History Makers and Cultural Giants tour. This month, meet us at the Fort Greene Park entrance on the corner of Dekalb Avenue and Washington Park for the Heart of Black Fort Greene: Fulton Street tour.
The Black History and Culture Tour of Fort Greene is an initiative of the Fort Greene Park Conservancy and Myrtle Avenue BID developed in partnership with BlackSpace, the Future Historical Society at BRIC, MoCADA, and the Weeksville Heritage Center.
RSVPs are encouraged but not required. All tours are free!
