We invite you to join us as the National Civil Rights Museum celebrates Juneteenth, a day of profound historical significance marking the emancipation of enslaved people in the United States and a milestone in the ongoing journey toward freedom and equality.

On Friday, June 19, the Museum will host a full day of programming, cultural performances, community resources, and activities for all ages in recognition of this national holiday. The celebration reflects our ongoing commitment to honoring African American history and inspiring positive social change.

This year's Juneteenth celebration places a special emphasis on health equity, honoring the connection between civil rights and the right to healthy, thriving communities. Programming will include resources, dialogue, and activities centered on wellness and health access for everyone.
