BMC was an experimental educational institution, located in the mountains of North Carolina, that operated from 1933 to 1957. The college was distinctive in its emphasis on the creative arts, including visual art, music, dance, and literature. It featured an interdisciplinary curriculum, and was attended by some of the leading figures of the 20th century, such as John Cage, Merce Cunningham, and Robert Rauschenberg.

The Black Mountain College Project is a partnership between the Center for the Study of Public History and Culture at New York University and the Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center in Asheville, NC. The project seeks to promote research and public programming that explores the history and legacy of BMC. Through collaborations with scholars, artists, and institutions, the project organizes public events, exhibitions, lectures, and workshops that focus on BMC’s unique educational model and its role as a center of avant-garde activity.

The project also includes a digital archive of BMC materials, such as photographs, archives, and publications, as well as a growing collection of oral histories of former students and faculty.
