Freedom to Thrive, Freedom to Shine

Juneteenth commemorates June 19, 1865, the day when enslaved people in Galveston, Texas, learned of their freedom more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. Today, Juneteenth is recognized as a celebration of liberation, cultural heritage, and the ongoing pursuit of justice and equity.

Join us for a powerful community celebration honoring Juneteenth, commemorating freedom, resilience, culture, and the enduring legacy of formerly enslaved Africans and their descendants.
