The Black Heritage Museum of Arlington (BHMA) celebrates the African American Journey to Freedom, providing a focal point exhibit on Arlington’s Freedman’s Village and contributions made by its residents and their descendants to local and national history.

Having long been a "museum-without-walls," the BHMA's new exhibit space is located at 3108 Columbia Pike, Arlington VA, 22204.

Current Gallery Hours:

  • Tuesdays, 11 a.m. - 3 p.m.
  • Thursdays, 3 p.m. - 6 p.m.
  • Saturdays, 1 p.m. - 4 p.m.

To schedule an exhibit viewing at a different time, please call the BHMA at (703) 271-8700 and request an appointment.
