Historic Mother Bethel AME is all about community unity. For an experience of art, culture, history, and preservation, check out Mother Bethel Crowns Exhibit, “A Celebration of Faith, Culture and Identity.” The event celebrates Mother Bethel’s role as the birthplace of the denomination and a center of Black faith, culture, and identity. As part of Philadelphia’s “52 Weeks of Firsts” for the ongoing 250th anniversary of the United States, the church is highlighting its history. Founded in 1787, the church sits on the nation’s oldest parcel of land continuously owned by African Americans.
