The Frederick Douglass Airfield Observatory Ribbon-Cutting

🚨 You’re invited! 🚨

Please join us for the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the Frederick Douglass Airfield Observatory, a new installation at the airport that honors the life and legacy of my great ancestor, Frederick Douglass, and the Douglass family’s deep ties to Rochester.

This observatory isn’t just a tribute to the past. It’s a space for education, reflection, and connection. Travelers and Rochester-area residents, especially students, will now have the opportunity to engage with a story that helped shape this city and changed the nation.

We hope it sparks curiosity, conversation, and a deeper understanding of Rochester’s pivotal place in the American struggle for freedom and human rights.
