With the month of February underway, Auburn residents can look forward to the celebrations of Black History Month with the coming addition of a new museum in Auburn that will showcase the rich history of African Americans in the community.Â
The Auburn Center for African American History and Culture will be one part of a three-stage redevelopment project in Northwest Auburn. In the projected budget, the city of Auburn will redevelop the Public Works and Environmental Services area off North Donahue Drive into a complex that will include the center, a library and a swimming pool. The Boykin Campus Improvements project is currently in the programming/design phase, with a current project budget of $1 million for Fiscal Year 2022, according to a presentation last summer on the city s Capital Improvement Plan.
