Juneteenth 2025 Celebrations & Resources

Juneteenth (also known as Freedom Day) marks the date of June 19, 1865 when Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas to finally inform enslaved Black people of their freedom. Texas was the last state to receive the news. This historical moment came two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed on January 1, 1863.


In honor of Juneteenth, we've compiled a list of local events, Black-owned businesses, and resources.
