Back to All Events
The Human Relations Commission is pleased to amplify and promote the many community activities being presented to commemorate Juneteenth this year!
Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day, is a holiday celebrating the emancipation of those who had been enslaved in the United States. June 19th is the anniversary date of the 1865 announcement of General Order No. 3 by Union Army General Gordon Granger proclaiming freedom from slavery in Texas nearly two and a half years after the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation.
Join us for one of these great events!
Thank you to the numerous community organizations working to organize them!
