Juneteenth Freedom Celebration at The Wright

Education. Economic Independence. Community Engagement. These themes define our Juneteenth Jubilee Freedom Weekend, held on June 18 and June 19, 2022!

Education will be highlighted with holiday history and folkways, as well as our Treasure Hunt and on-site programs. We will be encouraging and supporting economic independence by featuring black businesses and job opportunities. Community engagement is exemplified by our national and community partnerships, which include The League of Women Voters, We The People of Detroit, and Black Farmers’ Land Trust.

National Partner Presentation

Based on foundational themes of Black Americans, “We The People Echo Freedom” is our 3- to 5-minute piece of the national presentation.

Note: Due to precautions surrounding Covid-19, The Wright will be offering both online and in-person events, including presentations that span a range of topics and activities.
