The Museum of the National Center of Afro-American Artists

Housed in an 1872 mansion, the NCAAA is one of the region’s largest depositories of art from the African diaspora. The biggest draw is the replica burial chamber of the sixth-century B.C. Nubian King Aspelta, rescued from a Sudanese dam project.
