A Sanctuary for The Ordinary Colored Girl of the African Diaspora

A MEMOIR MUSEUM

The Colored Girls Museum (TCGM) is a memoir museum founded by Vashti Dubois that honors the stories, experiences, and history of the ordinary colored girl.

The first of its kind, the museum initiates the object—submitted by the Colored Girl herself—as a representative of an aspect of her story and personal history which she finds meaningful. These objects embody her experience and expression of being a Colored Girl.

The Intermission

The latest offering from The Colored Girls’ Museum, is a workshop production that invites our audience to join in the adventure. Here, a 140-year-old house serves as our protagonist. A colored girl's museum, accompanied by a widow and an ordinary colored girl, navigates intersecting and alternate realities, all in a quest to find their way back home or to each other.
