Juneteenth is A Federal Holiday! Here is what’s going on locally!

“Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day or Emancipation Day, is a significant date in American history that celebrates the end of slavery in the United States. This federal holiday commemorates the day when news of the Emancipation Proclamation finally reached Texas, the last state to have slaves declared free. Join us in celebrating this important milestone in our nation’s history and honoring the lives and legacies of those who fought for freedom.”
