Center for Black Culture
The Center for Black Culture (CBC) at Drexel University serves as a hub of information, activity, and community for Black students, faculty, professional staff, and alumni.
The CBC aims to increase knowledge, recognition, and respect of the people, histories, and cultures of the African diaspora and its many contributions to the world. All programs and services offered through the CBC are open to members of the Drexel community who want to gain a greater understanding of the Black experience and support a welcoming and wholly inclusive campus environment.
In partnership with the Drexel Founding Collection, a rotating gallery space has opened in the CBC on the first floor of the Rush Building to showcase artwork from Drexel students, faculty, and professional staff as well as the surrounding communities that portray Black experiences, beauty, and contributions to music, athletics, and Philadelphia. Pictured is the first exhibition, That Was Yesterday, May 30, 2020, featuring photographs by Nick Guzzo. Photo credit: Lynn Clouser
