Sumner Hall, located in historic Chestertown on Maryland's Eastern Shore, is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation that serves as a museum, educational site, performance stage, social hall, and gallery. Built in 1908 and fully restored in 2014, it is one of only two remaining African American G.A.R. buildings in the United States, preserving the contributions of African Americans who served in the U.S. Civil War and advocating for social justice and racial equity.
Sumner Hall honors African American veterans of the U.S. Armed Services, promotes an understanding of the African American experience within American history and culture, and strives for social justice in all aspects of civic life. Through exhibits, programs, and initiatives, Sumner Hall aims to create a space of remembrance and education, highlighting the African American legacy and fostering a deeper understanding of the past and present racial injustices.
