Lecture at Cape May Stage

Cape May’s Black residents have shaped the city’s identity in many ways, creating a legacy extensively documented and recognized by the New Jersey Register of Historic Places and the National Register of Historic Places in 2024 as historically important to the rich culture of the city, elevating and enhancing the city’s National Historic Landmark status. Cape May MAC (Museums+Arts+Culture) and the Center for Community Arts (CCA) present “Black Voices of Cape May,” a free lecture at Cape May Stage Saturday, May 2 at noon, that highlights the varied voices and experiences of the Black community and tells this integral layer of the Cape May story.
