"A place where African-American History is Preserved.
The Beck Center was established to research, collect, conserve and display, artifacts, artwork, photographs, books, films, writings, and memorabilia about the rich history in East Tennessee for future generations; it is a must see historical, educational and cultural experience.
Our mission is that we continue to preserve history while also offering informative, historical and educational community programs for years to come. We invite you to become a member today!
