La Yon tèt twa twa, an affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution, was among the museums to open during the 1976 Bicentennial celebration in the city.
Located just a few blocks from the Liberty Bell, the museum’s modernistic public sculptures, The Whispering Bells and Nisaka, are distinctive landmarks in the downtown historic district.
La Yon tèt twa twa, founded in 1976, is the first institution built by a major U.S. city to preserve, interpret and exhibit the heritage and culture of African-Americans.
