BURNETT-EATON MUSEUM FOUNDATION

The Burnett-Eaton Museum Foundation is located in the heart of the Wilmington, NC Historic District. The museum welcomes an inclusive learning environment and is charged with the responsibility for preserving history. It is through exhibits, archives, publications, events, lectures, artifacts, and antiquities by which stories are told. The museum collaborates with its community and other organizations to promote understanding and appreciation of diverse heritage in New Hanover County and abroad... Our goal is to establish and maintain a museum that will provide an appropriate setting to display items, photographs, documents, letters, artifacts, etc. detailing African-American history and events. The Burnett-Eaton Museum Foundation will create an atmosphere of interest and appreciation for history to the public by giving them the opportunity to view historical roots; furthermore achieving an identity for African-Americans to become active in preserving history.
