In 1976, the African American Museum initiated its first annual competition for southwest black artists. The purpose of the Competition and Exhibition stemmed from the Museum’s need to build a distinguished art collection and to provide black artists a venue to display their work. In 1999, the African American Board of Trustees named the
Biennial Southwest Black Art Competition and Exhibition the Carroll Harris Simms National Black Art Competition and Exhibition for Mr. Simms’ outstanding contribution to art and art education.
