Founded in 2001, the African American Heritage Festival has become one of the premiere Atlantic-coast summer festivals, offering to its patrons free-of-charge a wide array of entertainment and activities, from crafts and carnival rides in the Children's Area to live performances on the main stage. For three years, the Festival has been proud to offer its celebration of African American culture and history to you asking only that you come and have fun, but we now need your help to Keep the Festival Alive!

Through hard work, every year the Festival has been able to bring nationally acclaimed musical artists for free concerts, drawing crowds of more than 450,000 people over the course of three days, leading many to believe that as an organization the Festival is somehow profitable and financially self-sustaining. The truth in fact is quite different. The Festival's founding organization, the African American Festival Foundation, is a not-for-profit organization that is comprised solely of unpaid volunteer committee members who spend tens of hours of their personal time to bring you the best attractions and entertainment available. We rely solely on charitable contributions from corporate sponsors and individual donors and spend every cent we raise to create an event that your family will enjoy and remember for years to come.
