Juneteenth Celebration
Happy Juneteenth! ✊🏾 Every year, we commemorate the holiday by celebrating the legacy of Lt. Colonel Allen Allensworth, a man who escaped slavery, became a United States Army Veteran and later founded the historic town of Colonel Allensworth State Historic Park. Founded in 1908, this town is the only California community established, funded, and governed by African Americans. Here, settlers could own property, pursue education, and live with true freedom.
This year, we received the Route to Parks grant from Parks California, and were able to send over 150 people from the Bay Area and Bakersfield to Allensworth to celebrate Juneteenth. We're fortunate to partner with such amazing groups and want to thank all involved! It's an honor to educate the public and bring people to the park each year.
Check out a highlight reel from this year's Juneteenth Celebration 🎉
