Ralph Mark Gilbert Civil Rights Museum

When you visit the Ralph Mark Gilbert Civil Rights Museum, you will explore exhibits that highlight leadership, activism, faith and commitment during the Civil Rights era. Each space is designed to educate, reflect and inspire dialogue across generations. We welcome the students, families, scholars, and visitors from around the world.

Savannah played a vital role in the Civil Rights Movement through the Savannah Chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), grassroots organizing, community leadership, and courageous activism. The Museum documents these stories to ensure they remain visible, accessible, and honored for generations to come.
