Flipping The Dollar : A Historical Hands On Financial Literacy Workshop

Flipping The Dollar - A Financial Literacy Workshop

This all ages adventure begins with the interactive “Flipping the Dollar” activity, a dynamic experience that places you in the shoes of working-class Black entrepreneurs of the 1930s in the Beach Institute neighborhood. Through this fun, eye-opening challenge, you’ll see how business owners stretched every dollar, supported one another, and built a thriving community.

You’ll explore the powerful stories of resilience and triumph—from the struggles of slavery to the victories of freedom and learn about the legacy of W. W. Law, the civil rights leader who preserved this historic home.

This dynamic experience is perfect for families and community groups of all ages. You’ll leave with a deeper appreciation for the creativity, strength, and spirit that continue to shape Savannah’s African American community today.

Join us for an exciting and informative workshop learning the power of a dollar in our communities! Learn essential tips and tricks that may help you flip your dollar wisely and secure your family's financial future. This in-person event will be held at the King-Tisdell Cottage at 514 E. Huntingdon Street, so mark your calendars and bring your friends along for a fun and educational session. Don't miss out on this opportunity to gain valuable insights and take control of your money!
