Join us at the Rosa Parks Museum 252 Montgomery St. as we celebrate and educate!

The Rosa Parks Museum is excited to be able to once again host its annual Juneteenth celebration on Saturday, June 18, 2022, from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. in downtown Montgomery on the 200 block of Montgomery Street.

The event is free and open to the public and includes local food and merchant vendors, live music, arts & crafts activities, and complimentary tours of the museum.

Juneteenth, observed on June 19, is the oldest known commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. Our goal is to commemorate Juneteenth by celebrating African American freedom with a focus on education, achievement, and bringing people together from all walks of life to honestly recognize our shared history while embracing the African American experience, regardless of race, and nationality, religion, socioeconomic status.
