Clemson Area African American Museum, African American heritage museum in Clemson, South Carolina.

The Clemson Area African American Museum displays photographs, documents, and artifacts from the region's African American past. The collection covers multiple periods and aspects of this history through organized exhibit sections.

The building was constructed by the Pickens County school district in the 1940s as Calhoun Elementary, the last school built for African American students in this part of Pickens County. After desegregation it became Morrison Annex in 1971, housing kindergarten and first grade. The City of Clemson bought it in August 2003 for $100,000, finished a $1.3 million refurbishment in 2006, and renamed it Calhoun Bridge Center on April 16, 2007; the museum was chartered in 2002 and opened in 2007.

The museum tells the stories of African Americans who lived and worked in the region over generations. These narratives come alive through exhibits and community programs that visitors can experience today.

The museum is housed in a shared community building in central Clemson within walking distance of downtown. This location makes it easy to visit along with nearby cultural institutions.

The building was constructed by the Pickens County School District in the 1940s, not the early 1900s, to serve the growing number of African American families in the Calhoun area. It was the last school built for African American students in this part of Pickens County.
