In 2023, the Clemson Area African American Museum (CAAAM) was awarded a federal grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) in support of its Oral History Project documenting Upstate residents' stories. Recent cuts in federal funding have introduced uncertainty regarding the project's completion. The IMLS staff have been placed on administrative leave, impacting the museum’s federal grant. CAAAM is currently monitoring the situation and will provide updates as they become available.

The museum extends a heartfelt thank you to all who participated in the Oral History Project, which began recording in 2024. Our commitment to preserving and sharing history remains, and CAAAM is hopeful your stories will one day be heard.
