About this Event

Dear Community, on behalf of the Black Preservation Committee, we are honored to invite you to the 2026 Black Legacy Summit for Historic Preservation, hosted within the Washington State Black Legacy Institute—home to a growing visual and digital archive of Black history in Washington State. Surrounded by wall portraits of pioneering figures such as Nettie Asberry, William Grose, and Susie Revels Cayton, attendees will experience history in a living, immersive environment. The Institute also features research and archiving where visitors can explore and produce digital copies of historical artifacts from across the state.
