March 2026 Highlights

Congratulations to our Exec. Dir. Denise Adusei for being recognized in the 2026 Bronx Power 100!

Under her leadership, the Museum recently became a member of NYC’s prestigious Cultural Institutions Group, the first Bronx organization to achieve this in nearly 50 years.

From securing the Museum’s financial future to distributing thousands of books to local families, Denise is ensuring that every child in the Bronx sees themselves reflected in art and literature.

Please join us in celebrating her well-deserved spot at #88!
