Juneteenth Celebration


*The event has already taken place on this date: Thu, 06/19/2025
Juneteenth is here! Enjoy our many activities that embrace and celebrate the African American spirit, including a special performance! ‍ The oldest national commemoration of the ending of slavery, Juneteenth, truly celebrates freedom for all. On June 19, 1865, Union soldiers arrived in Galveston to inform enslaved African-Americans of their freedom, putting into effect the Emancipation Proclamation. Today, Juneteenth celebrates education, achievement and freedom. Celebrate this pivotal moment in American history!
