Van Cortlandt Park Alliance and Bronx Arts Ensemble invite you to an evening celebration of Juneteenth on the lawn of the Van Cortlandt House Museum. Get there early to eat dinner before the show. From 5 pm, delicious food will be available for sale from Voila Afrique. (First come-first served.) The ceremony will begin at 6pm on the lawn of the Van Cortlandt House Museum with performances, including music and spoken word. Then join us for a procession with drums to the Enslaved African Burial Ground with a libation ceremony, honoring the memory of the enslaved people.
