In December 2002 four individuals incorporated the Isaac Scott Hathaway Museum as a nonprofit history organization. Mr. Hathaway's name was chosen for the organization as an honor to a native son who had made his own contribution to history through the immortalization of African Americans in plaster and bronze busts.
Our purpose is to educate the public about the lives and works of distinguished African American artists, writers and others contributing to the community.
Our 501(c)3 status was granted in 2003. Your contributions are tax deductible.
Our Board of Directors is Anne Butler, Gloria Rie, Beverly Persley, Gary Brown, Chester Grundy, Millicent Pettaway, Yvonne Giles and Elizabeth Lawson.
Our members make it all happen here at the Isaac Scott Hathaway Museum!
