Juneteenth Celebration

Juneteenth commemorates the end
of slavery in the United States after
the Civil War. Partnering with the
New London NAACP and OIC New
London, the Hempsted Houses are
home to this yearly community event
celebrating Juneteenth and highlighting
the African American history of the
Hempsted Houses and the surrounding
New London neighborhood. Join us
as we engage in activities encouraging
conversations about emancipation,
cultural awareness, and civic
responsibility. Visit https://ctlandmarks.org/event/juneteenth/ for updates
