"Enjoy Sweet Auburn's African American History Museum The African American Panoramic Experience, known as the APEX Museum, is Sweet Auburn's best museum on African American history. It starts with the culture and heritage of Africa without focusing on the topic of slavery, which many other museums discuss. There is also an exhibit on the historic Sweet Auburn neighborhood and its relationship to the African American experience in Atlanta ."

The absolute best African American Educational Museum. I took my grands here and they loved it. We spent two hours walking through entire Museum and read EVERYTHING!! Love how it shows the absolute TRUTH with evidence of what happened to our Educated, Gifted African Kings and Queens by force migrating them all to America as slaves.

Such a hidden treasure! Also, the staff was so welcoming and full of information!! I'm so glad we had an opportunity to visit and we will certainly be coming back for the full guided tour! So incredibly important that we know where we came from but how far we need to strive to go. Thank you for this space to reflect!

As many times my husband and I have visited Atlanta over the years we never knew about this place. Absolutely love it. The ladies are informative, friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable people. Great tour. Thanks. We will definitely be back.

This was a great tour. Kyla, our tour guide, told us a unique story about her college research and how it connected to her lineage. It was powerful! It was the best part of the tour. The museum should add her research paper to their collection. Everyone should go. Some parts may be too for some, but it's worth it. It's an education that a textbook could never teach. The document behind the statues are real.

If you haven’t been to the Apex Museum yet, go and get the guided tour with Dan—might’ve been once of the best museum experiences I’ve ever had! The way they take you to through the history of African civilization with such depth and providing such great perspective

It's a small museum but has A LOT of information. Highly recommended for everyone, not just African-Americans. The tour guide definitely made it more interactive and captivating. There's even a small stimulation that can be very emotional. I recommend people go learn!
