Harriet Tubman Cultural Center

"I took a tour 2 weeks ago, and found this cultural center to be so well done. The history of this building for children of color in Howard County deserves to be heard. The excellence and cultural legacy that walked through these halls deserve our respect, appreciation, and support. My family & I will go back many times so we can take our time to absorb and reflect on all of the pictures, plagues, and displays. Please bring your entire family to learn about the rich heritage of not just this building, but the entire community."

"The movement to convert this historical school at Howard County to a cultural center is brilliant and necessary. A piece of history is preserved while it offers a open space to host many events and many much needed services. I enjoy reading its history and pictures every time I visit this center. I'll give it a 5 stars."

"Had a great time. Went to a special event. There was a couple of groups there singing and a nice play."

"The Harriet Tubman Cultural Center does not comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. For example, a person who was recently at the Harriet Tubman Center— as I had the misfortune of hearing— Was left to be stuck on a wheelchair ramp because of the failure of the center to comply with the ADA. That is, if my understanding of history is correct, not in the spirit of what Harriet Tubman herself would have wanted—as she herself became a person with disabilities while she was enslaved."
