Visit the Rolland Center for Lincoln Research for a celebration of Juneteenth with a temporary exhibit case. It will be available for viewing May 29-July 2.

Join the Rolland Center for Lincoln Research for a Juneteenth celebration! A new exhibit case will be unveiled on May 29, 2024, at the Allen County Public Library featuring art of United States Colored Troops, Frederick Douglass speeches and his signature, a ticket to an 1864 Emancipation Day celebration, and a children’s abolitionist alphabet book. Juneteenth, also called Emancipation Day, is the celebration of June 19, 1865, when Union soldiers marched into Texas and freed the remaining slaves in Confederate states following President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation of January 1, 1863. The exhibit will be open to the public and available to view through July 2, 2024. It is located in the Rolland Center for Lincoln Research at the Main Library.
