Juneteenth Day is really an American celebration; so many different Americans were involved in bringing slavery to an end in this country. Juneteenth is also about family, community and honoring all of the Americans who fought for the first Juneteenth Day, when American slaves learned of their freedom.

Come out and enjoy the festivities at SLAC's 20th Junteenth Day Celebration, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Friday, June 19, in front of Building 41. There will be plenty of food, entertainment, vendors and even a raffle. We have a delicious traditional favorites menu planned, as well as music and fun on the
SLAC Green. Bring your lawn chair, a big appetite and your comfy shoes. Food will be served at noon.
