Starting Monday, March 4, the center will be open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday and closed Saturday and Sunday, except for group appointments.

Opened in April 2004, the 5,000-square-foot cultural center can be found in the 11.93-acre Harry T. & Harriette V. Moore Memorial Park at 2180 Freedom Avenue in Mims, the site of the original Moore family home.

The park is dedicated to the celebration of their lives and to promoting awareness of their unique contributions to the early civil rights movement.

The facility is managed by Brevard County Parks and Recreation, North Area.
