Join us on June 19th at Freedom Park for a joyous Juneteenth celebration! This special day marks the emancipation of the last enslaved African Americans in 1865 and honors African American heritage, culture, and resilience.
Explore our historical exhibits that showcase the journey from slavery to freedom. Learn about key figures, significant events, and the enduring fight for civil rights. The exhibits will provide an educational experience for all ages, deepening our understanding of this important chapter in American history.
Enjoy live music and performances throughout the day, featuring local artists and bands. From soulful gospel choirs to energetic drum circles, the performances will celebrate the rich cultural heritage of African American music and art. Bring your dancing shoes and be prepared to move to the rhythm!
Indulge in delicious traditional food from a variety of vendors. Savor the flavors of soul food, BBQ, and other African American culinary delights. Additionally, local artisans and businesses will have booths set up, offering unique handmade crafts, clothing, and more.
This event is perfect for families! We have planned a range of activities for children and adults alike. Kids can enjoy face painting, storytelling sessions, and a bouncy castle, while adults can participate in interactive workshops and discussions on African American history and culture.
As the event draws to a close, we will gather for a Reflection and Unity Circle. This will be a time for attendees to share their thoughts, feelings, and hopes for the future. Together, we will light candles to symbolize the ongoing journey towards equality and justice for all.
Join Us!
We invite everyone in the community to join us for this meaningful celebration. Whether you come to learn, dance, eat, or simply connect with others, your presence will make this event special. Juneteenth is a reminder of the strength and resilience of African Americans and a call to action for continued progress towards equality.
