Join us for our biggest fundraising event of the year to benefit the Carver Museum and Cultural Center (The Carver) and, through it, the wider Phoenix and Arizona community. Rooted in the museum and cultural center's mission to honor and share Arizona’s African American heritage, arts, and culture, proceeds from the event will support exhibitions, educational programs, cultural events, and the ongoing preservation of the historic Carver campus and its collections.
This work directly strengthens the institution’s staff, programs, and facilities while enriching the lives of residents, young people, students, tourists, artists, families, and organizations that engage with The Carver’s history, creative work, and community resources and services. Your support will truly make a difference.
Because of friends like you, we are advancing as a crucial center of gravity in the African American community and beyond, equipping people with the knowledge, skills, and resources necessary to improve their lives. Let us celebrate the lives and community that The Carver has grounded and uplifted. Let us advance our mission "100 Years Forward!"
