Alliance for Cultural Equity

The Pitch

The Alliance for Cultural Equity (A.C.E.) is a collaborative network of small museums and community-based archives, preserving and amplifying marginalized histories and cultures. A.C.E. began establishing its collective record of research, programming, and fund development in service of documenting and promulgating the history, art, and culture of Black, Indigenous, People of Color, and LGBTQ+ communities. A.C.E.’s member organizations preserve and transmit positive community narratives, build social cohesion, encourage intergenerational communication, the transfer of knowledge, and organize communities to protect and advance their interests.
