Phyllis Wheatley Celebrates a Century

1924 - 2024

On October 17, 2024, Phyllis Wheatley Community Center will celebrate its 100th year. For a century, our organization has existed to serve Minneapolis' African American people, creating equity, opportunity, and hope for better futures. 

​​​

Now, as we look to the future, we invite you to join us to celebrate the history and achievements our legacy organization has made to create a space for African Americans in a city filled with opportunity, but too often, only for some. ​

 

On April 11, 2025, Phyllis Wheatley will host its centennial gala in celebration of our century of commitment to our community.
