Juneteenth at the National Constitution Center – Jun 19
Posted by National Constitution Center on June 16, 2026
Juneteenth marks our country’s second Independence Day, when the promises of “Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness” in the Declaration of Independence became more fully realized for millions of formerly enslaved Black Americans. Museum programs at the National Constitution Center will highlight the history of the holiday and stories of freedom fighters from the Reconstruction era, including Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, and Frances Ellen Watkins Harper.
Admission to the Center is free on Juneteenth to celebrate this national holiday.
