Ledonia Wright Cultural Center

The Ledonia Wright Center at East Carolina University serves as a facility for research and educational programming, providing for specialized diversity and social justice to allow students to become more confident and culturally aware global citizens. The LWCC provides support for African/African-American, Asian, Latino, Native American, and Pacific Islander cultural programming and services. The LWCC is also repository for the ECU’s collection of African and African-American art. The Ledonia Wright Cultural Center displays artwork in its Sankofa Art Gallery that is reflective of its mission. The Sankofa symbol aligns with the mission of the Ledonia Wright Cultural Center to provide experiences for our students to become confident, globally aware citizens. Through naming the gallery, it reaffirms the center’s commitment to help create a more culturally aware and responsible campus community.
