About KAA-MaCC

A Community Dream

Kannapolis African-American Museum and Cultural Center (KAA-MaCC) was founded in 2013 by two ladies and some G. W. Carver High School alumni who saw a need for a place where people of all cultures could come together and share their traditions and customs.

Today, the leadership team is small but full of passion for preserving the history and culture of African-Americans in Cabarrus and Rowan County, North Carolina.

The KAA-MaCC Team is "Continuing the Quest for History Untold."
