About
Juneteenth in the Pass committee is organizing an event in observance of Juneteenth. The Emancipation Proclamation ended slavery in the Confederacy, but it wasn’t applied nationally until two (2) years later on June 19, 1865. Today, this Holiday is the most popular annual celebration of emancipation from slavery in the United States.
The Juneteenth in the Pass committee is sponsoring a free community Juneteenth Celebration that begins at noon. There will be entertainment by DJ Mixx Maestro and food and craft vendors on site. All are welcome to attend. The celebration will end at 5 p.m.
The J. W. Randolph Center is located at 315 Clark Avenue in Pass Christian. For more information, please call Kimberly at 228-313-8033 or email juneteenthpc@gmail.com. https://www.facebook.com/events/582560233688404 - Map
