Visit all eight sites and get your Kansas African-American History Trail passport stamped at each one! (When the Freedom's Frontier offices at the Carnegie Building are closed, you print out a virtual stamp that can be found on this website at http://www.freedomsfrontier.org/pages/NPS_Passport_Virtual_Tour)

*This site is not within the borders of Freedom's Frontier National Heritage Area, but is included here because of the museum's dedication to preserving African American History in Kansas, and the trail created that includes six sites that are within our boundaries.

**This site is also outside of the borders of Freedom's Frontier. National Heritage Areas work closely with the National Park Service. Nicodemus National Historic Site is one of the National Park Service Sites Freedom's Frontier partners with, as we tell similar stories.

You can find microsites for all of these sites along The Kansas African American History Trail on our website. Visit the individual locations' microsites for hours, and more information.
