Much like American Beach itself, the A.L. Lewis Museum rose from the imagination of what could be, if only willed into existence. With a focus on American Beach from 1935 to present, the A.L. Lewis Museum celebrates the triumph of residents and visitors over segregation and other forms of racial discrimination and disfranchisement. The A.L. Lewis Museum’s mission is to document and interpret the rich tradition and legacy of African Americans’ ingenuity, perseverance and achievements. Through our exhibits and programs, we honor African Americans as agents of change in the development of African-American and American society.
