The A. Quinn Jones Museum and Cultural Center is a museum in Gainesville, Florida. The museum preserves the legacy of Allen Quin Jones (1893–1994),^[3] a local educator who dedicated his life to educating African-Americans.^[4]

The house originally belonged to the family of A. Quinn Jones. Jones became the first principal of Lincoln High School (Gainesville, Florida) and held a long career there.^[5]

Jones developed the house into the second fully accredited African-American high school in the state of Florida.

The house is now a museum honoring Jones. Known as the A. Quinn Jones Museum & Cultural Center, it features exhibits that detail the history of African Americans in Gainesville and Alachua County during the Civil Rights Movement.

The museum was temporarily closed to the public during the COVID-19 pandemic.^[6]
