Spending time with Jonathan Winbush, CEO of The Beach Institute African-American Cultural Center was a privilege and a joy. His life long erudition, passion and experience within the context of African American history - locally, nationally and internationally - is profound and seemingly boundless. His guided tour of the several galleries and exhibits on-site were very enjoyable and informative. Thank you again Jon for a memorable experience!
Jun 18, 2025 · Google ReviewMust see! Excited to visit again for one of their galas and or artist talk exhibitions! Full of interesting botanical and garden information. Perfect for anyone trying to understand Black people‘s relationship with the land in Savannah. Also, cool information on black jockeys and Cowboys. A gorgeous gallery of local artist and community members. A garden to sit in and chat with friends!
Mar 21, 2025 · Google ReviewThis was such a rich trip. We had a guide who was young but so knowledgeable. He claimed to be our groups Alexa and was able to tell us so much history for many different pieces and this building truly showcases a transitional time for the African American history in Savannah. There are also activities for younger children

Apr 9, 2025 · Google ReviewHad a great time! We had a tour guide so us around when we went but you can definitely visit on your own. They have a store front where you can buy information about African American history in significantly more detail than you would normally learn about. They also sell merchandise from local businesses in the area.
