Freetown Village Inc. is a non-profit living history museum based in Indianapolis, Indiana. The mission is to educate the public about African-American culture and history. They perform historic interpretations of the lives of African Americans as it relates to Indiana history.
Freetown provides a free performance every 3rd Friday of the month, "The Madam Walker Story." This one-character story is about the first self-made female millionaire in the United States. You can also tour the Walker Memorabilia Center as well as the Walker Theatre (call in advance to schedule a tour).
This organization also promotes many other great programs such as a summer camp for local children to learn about history, tradition, teamwork, and responsibility.
This is an awesome non-profit that needs more community support to continue bringing its mission to the public. I'm grateful to be a part of Freetown Village, and I'll continue to do everything I can to support their mission and future goals.
