About this event

Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

This exhibition commemorates Freedom Day! Freedom finally came on June 19, 1865, when some 2,000 Union troops arrived in Galveston Bay, Texas. The army announced that the more than 250,000 enslaved black people in the state, were free by executive decree. This day came to be known as "Juneteenth," by the newly freed people in Texas.

Artists of the world join in celebrating the enduring spirit of Juneteenth through their powerful artistic expressions. For nearly 160 years, Juneteenth has commemorated the end of slavery in the United States - a pivotal moment that represented the promise of freedom, human dignity, and equal rights for all. Its significance was further acknowledged when President Joe Biden declared Juneteenth a federal holiday in 2021, ensuring this day receives the national recognition it deserves.

Some of the 27 artists will be present to speak about their works and answer any questions from the attendees. This is the first of four Gallery Talks.
