Mission
The National Black Arts (NBAF) is here to advance the arts and contributions of artists of African descent.
What We Do
NBAF educates, enriches and entertains through programs and events that bring diverse audiences and communities together to appreciate and celebrate the richness of the arts and culture and the extraordinary contributions of artists of African descent to American and world culture. We present, support and celebrate these artists and their work through excellent artistic and educational programs in spotlights, festivals, and through arts education and youth development programs that nurture the talent of the next generation.
