Everyday objects carry extraordinary histories.

A photograph tucked inside an album. A favorite piece of clothing. A handwritten recipe. A church program. A doll, a record, a letter, a family keepsake. These objects may seem ordinary, but they hold evidence of who we are, where we have been, and what we choose to remember.

A Call for Artifacts invites you to bring your objects—and the stories they carry—to the DuSable Black History Museum and Education Center. Together, we are building a community-powered digital archive that preserves the richness of Black life, memory, and culture across generations and across the globe.

Your history matters. Your objects tell stories. Help us preserve them.
