Kennard African American Cultural Heritage Center and Museum

Located at 410 Little Kidwell Ave., the Kennard Heritage Center is a museum in the old African American public high school that highlights African American life in both Queen Anne’s County and the nation. With an emphasis on the period of 1936 through 1966, when Kennard High School (KHS) operated, exhibits feature pictures and artifacts from African America culture in education, occupation, military, business, and civic life during that era as well as recorded histories of KHS students, teachers, and local citizens of that era. The museum also captures the history of Lucretia Kennard, supervisor of Queen Anne’s County Negro schools who raised the funds for the first Black high school in Centreville.
