All are welcome to celebrate Juneteenth at the Sautee Nacoochee Center from Friday, June 19 through Sunday, June 21. The history and traditions of the Appalachian Mountains will be alive at the Heritage Site. Activities at the Heritage Site are free of charge.
Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. On June 19, 1865, Union soldiers landed at Galveston, Texas with news that the war had ended and that the enslaved were now free. This was two and a half years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation, which had become official January 1, 1863.
The Heritage Site at SNC features two structures that will be brought to life over Juneteenth weekend. A slave cabin original to the Nacoochee Valley and moved to the SNC campus, along with a blacksmith’s shop built onsite in 2014, tell the region’s history in many ways.
