Arab American National Museum

The Arab American National Museum of Dearborn, Michigan is "the first and only museum in the United States devoted to Arab American history and culture." On this website, visitors can learn more about the museum and explore a number of interactive exhibits. These online materials are available via the Exhibits and Collections sections. In Exhibits, visitors can explore four interactive exhibits that highlight the museum's permanent collections. One of these, Coming to America, traces the history of Arab immigration to North America back to Zammouri, a Moroccan man who arrived in modern day Florida in the early sixteenth century. Zommouri, who had been sold into slavery in Europe, played a key role in the early exploration of the southwestern region of North America. In another online exhibit, Making an Impact, visitors can learn more about important Arab-American individuals and their contributions to education, science, culture, and more.
