Landis Valley Village & Farm Museum, 2451 Kissel Hill Road, Lancaster, will host Lancaster's annual Juneteenth Celebration on Thursday, June 19. This event, organized in partnership with the Lancaster Chapter of the National Action Network (NAN), will mark the first time Juneteenth is celebrated at Landis Valley.

This year's celebration, which coincides with Landis Valley's 100th anniversary year, will immerse visitors in a living history experience. The event will include live historical re-enactments and performances by the PA Past Players, local gospel choirs performing spirituals and songs of the era, vendors and food trucks showcasing African American-owned businesses and traditional cuisine, and educational programming exploring the legacy of emancipation and the impact of Juneteenth in Pennsylvania.

There will be reduced admission to the museum for the celebration. For more information, contact site administrator Shawn Gladden at shgladden@pa.gov or 717-569-0401.
