Mission
The National Museum of Gospel Music will inspire people of all ages to learn more about gospel music and its contributions to the foundation of American music culture through its exhibitions and programs. The National Museum of Gospel Music will be known for its commitment to understanding the richness of gospel music as reflected in our past, present, and future by providing learning experiences for children and adults. The role gospel music has played in the fight for freedom as well as an ambassador of goodwill around the world. The museum will seek to cross ethnic groups to present the historical importance of this musical genre as the Peoples' Music of faith, hopes, and dreams.
