Green Revolution explores green technology and innovation and features African American architects, designers, engineers and business leaders in the green movement. Bring your family to see some of the latest innovations in renewable energy, organic agriculture and sustainable building, while trying your hand at fun activities like digging into a worm composting bin, racing a solar-powered toy car—and more.
As part of the program, Black Creativity will be supported with a juried art exhibition, a family day, educational workshops, special events and more. See the Events tab on this page for a complete listing of events.
Green Revolution is part of the Museum's annual Black Creativity celebration, a six-week program that highlights the achievements and heritage of African Americans in science, technology and the arts.
