Zora Neale Hurston Florida Education Foundation (ZNHFEF), also known as the Zora Neale Hurston Dust Track Museum and Enrichment Center, is a 501C3 non-profit organization, located in Fort Pierce, FL. Our organization is committed to promoting and preserving the legacy of Zora Neale Hurston in the Lincoln Park Community
The ZNHFEF’s unique mission is to preserve and promote the literary and local legacy of the world-renowned author and anthropologist, Zora Neale Hurston. Recently, St. Lucie County transferred ownership of the former St. Lucie County Welfare Home and Agape Center to the ZNHFEF.
The Humanities Center is where Zora spent her final days before passing away there in 1960. The facility later served as a segregated nursing home and a senior daycare center for many years. Now, the ZNHFEF seeks to renovate this facility to create the Zora Neale Hurston Community Center and Museum. Your annual financial provisions are needed to support the restoration of the facility to a world-renowned Museum and Humanities Center and to preserve Ms. Hurston’s legacy in Fort Pierce, Florida, and beyond.
