The Cape Verdean Museum
The Cape Verdean Museum
Is the first Cape Verdean Museum in the world and still the only museum solely dedicated to celebrating and educating about the history and culture of the Cape Verde Islands and Cape Verdean Americans. We opened our doors to the public in 2005.
Artifacts
We have a unique set of artifacts, photographs, maps and crafts donated from all over the world. There are exhibits on music, the arts, slavery, whaling, the immigration packets, the cranberry bogs, the longshoremen and Cape Verdean Independence among other topics. We also have an extensive library of books and films available for browsing and academic research.
