Celebrate Juneteenth in Acton!!
June 19, 2025 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm EDT
On June 19 at 2:00 pm, Acton’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Commission invites you to our celebration of Juneteenth. We begin at the Acton Congregational Church with Author Ray Anthony Shephard, who will present a history of Juneteenth and its relevance to other fights for freedom, followed by several musical selections. Around 3:00 pm, we will walk to the Acton Women’s Club where Local Tour Guide Amy Cole will share Acton’s history about Emancipation and local abolitionists. We end our celebration with how horse culture ties into the histories of Black freedom and survival at the heart of Juneteenth.
