Third Thursday- Juneteenth and Invoking the Spirit
This event is no longer on sale.
In honor of Juneteenth, visit or return to Lafayette Park to discover some of the earliest stories of Black Bottom, as a bastion of anti-slavery leadership and new beginnings for thousands of Detroiters making their way to Canada. Angela Dillard, chair of History Department at the University of Michigan will join us for a discussion about the importance of preserving the history and stories of this significant space.
This event will be held at the Detroit Historical Museum and is free with registration.
