Sandburg is closed today, Friday, June 19, in observance of Juneteenth. Via History.com, Juneteenth marks the day when federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, in 1865 to take control of the state and ensure that all enslaved people be freed. The troops’ arrival came a full two and a half years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation.

Juneteenth honors the end to slavery in the United States and is considered the longest-running African American holiday. Juneteenth has been a federal holiday since 2021.
