Juneteenth 2010!
Celebrating The End of Slavery

The Hamilton Hill Arts Center is proud to present its 10th Annual Juneteenth Celebration. The festivities will be held the weekend of June 18 - 20, in Schenectady, NY. Please join us for the opening ceremony on Friday, June 18th at Vale Cemetery, as we celebrate our ancestors with historic re-enactments and a program in their honor. The Juneteenth Celebration continues at Central Park, June 19th � June 20th, as we pay tribute to a significant moment in African-American, and American history. It is a time for all Americans to come together and celebrate the freedoms that make this nation great.

Sunday's (June 20) activities include an interdenominal faith service and a Father's Day tribute, including the Father of the Year Award. Activities also include workshops, vendors, arts and crafts for children and activities for the whole family. More will be announced on this website in the coming months. This event is free and all are welcome. We look forward to seeing you there!
