You'll know you've reached this welcoming museum when you see the giant head rising out of the hilltop next to a mansion reminiscent of Roxbury's wealthy past. With a focus on the work of Boston's African-American community, the museum offers changing exhibits of work by visual artists, including photography, painting, sculpture, and graphics. A small permanent exhibit called “Aspelta: A Nubian King's Burial Chamber” accompanies a collection of ancient artifacts from the MFA to recreate the tomb of an ancient Kushite king. Educational material abounds, and the museum particularly encourages trips by schoolchildren. Their parents can rent the house for upscale private functions. Admission $4, students and seniors $3.
