"The August Wilson Center for African American Culture is a not-for-profit organization that presents performing, visual, and education programs that celebrate the contributions of African Americans within the region and the impact of cultural expression from Africa to the African Diaspora. The AWC's presentations include dance, music, art, theater and other cultural, educational and artistic events." The center is currently constructing a building which will serve as a museum and presentation place.

The site offers information on upcoming events, an events calendar, a virtual tour of the building under construction, and a brief biography of August Wilson.

The center is under development. Opening is planned for September 2009.
