Kolbe Cole From Trails Ministries on Teleforum

Kolbe Cole from Trails Ministries in Beaver Falls stopped by on Teleforum with Frank Sparks today to talk about a various number of topics and activities concerning Trails Ministries.

This weekend Friday June 23 and Saturday June 24 Trails Ministries will be hosting  the return of the  Black History 101 Mobile Museum at its Hope Center at 918 Seventh Ave. in Beaver Falls Pa. The traveling exhibit of black memorabilia visited the city last July.  The mobile classroom founded by Khalid el-Hakim of Detroit is a historic breath taking  learning laboratory of more than 7,000 artifacts. El-Hakim, a teacher, started collecting while a student at Ferris State University and was inspired to create the mobile museum after attending 1995’s Million Man March in Washington, D.C., where Louis Farrakhan urged those attending to make a difference in their communities.  The exhibit depicts black memorabilia spanning from to slavery to hip hop.

The hours of the exhibit are  3 to 9 p.m.  Friday June 23 and from noon to 6 p.m. Saturday June 24. Museum curator Khalid el-Hakim will present a lecture for adults at 6:30 p.m. on Friday and one for youth at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday.
