Dickey Museum & Multipurpose Center

The Dickey Museum & Multipurpose Center (DMMC) is dedicated to collecting, preserving, exhibiting, and presenting African American culture, history, and lived experiences through art and historical exhibits, storytelling, and community programming. It aims to serve as an educational resource, sharing local history and culture that is often overlooked. Inspired by the legacy of Dr. James Lee Dickey, the DMMC also functions as a community resource center, fostering learning, connection, and action, and assisting underserved residents with services that support health and well-being, particularly for households in Taylor's Health Equity Zone. The organization is also involved in restoring the historic home of Dr. Dickey to serve as a museum and multipurpose center.
