The August Wilson Society is a 501(c)(3) organization and interdisciplinary learning community dedicated to promoting the studying, teaching, performing, researching and ultimate safeguarding of the rich legacy that renowned playwright August Wilson has bequeathed to us in the form of 10 plays that chronicle the history, decade by decade, of African Americans in the twentieth century.The August Wilson Society has launched a national membership and capital campaign to continue to preserve and enhance Wilson's legacy. The Society, which was founded at Howard University 17 years ago, is now a national nonprofit that will soon operate out of Wilson's hometown of Pittsburgh, which is home to the August Wilson House, the August Wilson Center and the August Wilson Archives at the University of Pittsburgh. Please join the family of Wilsonians across the country by making a one-time donation or becoming a sustaining member of the Society.
