Old Dillard Museum

The Old Dillard Museum occupies a prominent place in the history of Fort Lauderdale. Formerly called “the colored school," the building is one of Ft. Lauderdale’s first local historic landmarks, as well as the first school constructed for people of color in this area. Since its construction, this landmark has served as an important educational and cultural center for Ft. Lauderdale’s African‐American community. Regarded by all as one of Broward County’s most significant links to the past, this historically distinctive structure has been restored to serve the community as a museum and cultural/educational center.
