ABOUT

History and Harriett

Our Black Moses Freedom Festival has been curated as a Heritage, Health, and Wellness Festival celebrating the Spirit, Ingenuity, and Liberation of African Americans and people of color around the globe. Keeping the spirit of Harriet Tubman alive in Beaufort County is of utmost importance because of the hundreds of enslaved captives freed by her hands.  She freed over 750, right here in our Beautiful Beaufort County. 

As a community we should be educated about this proud history, and Harriet ‘Araminta’ Tubman should be celebrated as one of our local and personal heroes. No other State, City, or County can boast such a significant victory as one of the most famous successful missions of her legacy. Now we come together to learn how to maintain our Freedom through Health, Wealth, and Art.


The Beaufort County Black Chamber of Commerce is a nonprofit Community Development Financial Institution dedicated to the economic empowerment of underserved communities and small businesses. 



Founded in 1999 BCBCC offers products, services, and educational programming for multi-cultural

business-owners and professionals within Beaufort and neighboring communities. 


The individuals and businesses served are federally recognized as disadvantaged business enterprises and/or

have been denied access to capital in traditional finance markets. 


Our goal is to provide opportunities for emerging professionals and entrepreneurs to expand their professional networks and increase their personal wealth.
