Celebrate Black History Month with the Huntington Historical Society! Our new exhibition, “Highlights from Huntington’s African American History,” shares the story of such prominent figures and organizations as Booker T. Washington, Samuel Ballton, John and Alice Coltrane, the Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church, and Evergreen Missionary Baptist Church. This exhibit is co-sponsored by the African American Historic Designation Council, and is based on their work to educate and increase awareness about the values and contributions of African Americans in the town.
