Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. Juneteenth is the only holiday that commemorates the abolition of slavery, more specifically the emancipation of enslaved Africans throughout the United States of America. We look forward to many more years of the Hamilton Juneteenth Celebrations. Celebrating & Educating is a priority and goal of our Celebration
