Frederick Douglass Museum and Cultural Center Inc

The mission of the FDMCC is to promote a greater understanding and appreciation of the life and work of Frederick Douglass and his family, to identify, document, and preserve the social and cultural histories of the communities where the FDMCC is located (Highland Beach and neighboring Venice Beach), and to make this history and resources available for information, enlightenment, and research to visitors. The Museum is located in the Douglass house, Museum admission is free, and 15 docents volunteer time to provide individual and group tours. The FDMCC continues to be a significant historical and cultural site in Maryland, chronicling the legacy of Frederick Douglass and his family. Through its evolving exhibits and collections, tours, and guided interpretations, the FDMCC strives to preserve and share this history and its impact on African American life and culture.
