Seeking Board Members
The Black Cultural Society of Nova Scotia, established in 1977 as a provincial charitable organization with a mandate to Protect, Preserve and Promote African Nova Scotian Heritage and Culture. These objectives are carried out through the operation and management of the Black Cultural Centre for Nova Scotia.

– Museumology
– Finance
– Education
– Community Development

Recently the Black Cultural Society underwent important changes to its operations and the Provincial Legislation that governs the organization.

We are seeking perspective board members to represent one of the following regions:
~ Halifax Regional Municipality ~ North (Cumberland, Colchester, Pictou)
~ Cape Breton ~ Valley (Kings, Annapolis, Hants)
