Our Vison

We envision her home as the future “Dr. Jane McAllister House Museum” that will reflect her passion and commitment to excellence. That will give historical context to her extraordinary achievements, to honor her life, ethos and legacy with exhibits documenting the scope and depth of her work in education, as well as exhibits highlighting the extraordinary legacy of the larger African American community in Vicksburg…well into the first half of the 20th Century.
 
We envision a vibrant educational and cultural exchange…a hub for teachers, artists, scholars, students, featuring lecture series, artifacts, and contemporary exhibits that reflect the future history and the promise of Vicksburg. A mentoring program with experienced and willing community elders, students and others sharing their knowledge in a variety of disciplines and levels of expertise; and, a Youth Program that empowers, highlights, amplifies the voices of children (ages 8 -16) as a multigenerational effort in which children learn to express their thoughts and feelings through art – music, spoken word, writing, visual art, dance, etc. – but mostly to have fun while learning about expression, creation, collaboration and mutual respect.
