Black History Month
Black History Month originated in the United States and was first celebrated in February 1970 at Kent State University to commemorate the achievements and history of African Americans. Since then, Black History Month has grown in significance around the world. Today, Black History Month continues the discussion on the lived experience of People of Colour as well as their contributions to culture and history with international talk series, exhibitions, educational events, film series, and more.
The Weltmuseum Wien is once again dedicating February 2026 to these topics.
