"The museum is located in the school's parking lot near the field"
"Enlightening and bought a perspective to our students that they really need to have"
"Top 5 museum experience I’ve had so far"
"Thinking it would just be photos on the wall enlarged from yearbooks, boy was I in for a surprise! This place is an unknown gem"
"I originally knew of Crispus Attucks because of the athletics program, but the museum contains much more"
The museum is located in the school's parking lot near the field.of Enter through door 13. It'small but very enriching museum. The amount of culture in this location is invaluable not only to the community, but the country. There is evidence that the school board is trying to force this wonderful museum out if it's location and that would be a huge disservice to the community and the history contained within. Please come visit and take in all the wonderful information available.
Enlightening and bought a perspective to our students that they really need to have. With such a great resource here in Indianapolis, I recommend all schools and all ages to go and experience the information that is necessary for our future leaders to be properly educated to be successful now, and for the near future. The instructor was phenomenal!! I plan to personally take my children to spend quite some time there soaking up as much as possible.
Top 5 museum experience I’ve had so far. The museum is very descriptive and you will learn something new I promise you. I came from Omaha Nebraska and anticipated checking the place out for four months. My wait was well worth it! Love all the exhibits! Support your black museums

Thinking it would just be photos on the wall enlarged from yearbooks, boy was I in for a surprise! This place is an unknown gem. Why pay big bucks to see African art and read about history when you can visit this cozy tasteful exhibit where you can park at the door, meet and converse with the curator right in the heart of historic Lockefield Gardens.
I originally knew of Crispus Attucks because of the athletics program, but the museum contains much more. The curator offers tours by appointment and does a wonderful job of tying together multiple areas of history and culture.

Was able to visit the museum today with some of our teens from church. Had an amazing time. Was not aware such great history was in our backyard. Mr. Chester was very welcoming and knowledgeable. I recommend everyone come out and see what this museum has to offer.
It’s a very nice museum. I’ve never been good with past and present racism and racial issues, so to see what my mother, grandparents and Fore parents went through it was just A very emotional visit. Great job on the history compilation.
A small yet powerful museum that started the history of my people from the Pyramids. The receptionist was very polite and professional. The Museum provided us with a lot of information especially as a visual supplement to what we read.
POWERFUL! POWERFUL! POWERFUL! This iconic piece of Dr. King Americana is on display at the Crispus Attucks Museum! All Americas throughout the country should take time to visit this amazing museum located in the heart of Indianapolis!
My husband and I was excited to discover this hidden gem right in our city. With so much history, information, and art work; a soul can find refugee in learning. Take a few trips to discover your soul works, you shall enjoy!!!!!
This was a great experience from the time I walked in, till I walked out! This museum is a MUST see for everyone. Its very clean, organized, and very informative. It's a lot of black history in one place. Great job curator!

I took my 7th grader and 8th grader here for a black history lesson today and the place was very well rounded and detailed. The host was nice and had a lot of knowledge to share with us
This carefully curated collection of black history is a hidden jewel of Indy. Took the guided tour by museum curator Mr. Robert Chester. So glad we made the time to stop in!
This is a valuable and necessary resource in the community. The museum is very well laid out and a true treasure. I will absolutely return in the near future.
We had an informative visit. The host Robert was very gracious and made us feel welcome. If you live or visit Indianapolis, we recommend this museum.
This museum is a hidden gem in Indianapolis. Robert is a wealth of knowledge and happy to share it. Come out and support this wonderful museum!
It was a very wonderful experience that we had. Mr. Chester is very knowledgable and committed to providing memorable experiences!
Great historical perspective on many levels, Crispus Attucks was and remains an integral part of our local community.
