✨ This Juneteenth, we invite you to be part of a historic moment for Chicago✨
As we celebrate the opening of the Obama Presidential Center, we are proud to welcome our community to America’s oldest independent Black history museum for a day of culture, connection, wellness, education, and joy.
As we commemorate Juneteenth and the ongoing journey toward freedom, this celebration offers an opportunity to reflect on our shared history, honor those who came before us, and imagine what is possible for generations to come.
For generations, The DuSable Museum has preserved and elevated Black stories. This year, visitors will have the opportunity to experience two landmark institutions dedicated to honoring our history and inspiring future generations.
We’re especially excited that Chicago historian and our very own Brand Ambassador, , will help connect these experiences through complimentary shuttle service between The DuSable Museum and the Obama Presidential Center.
Join us for a FREE day featuring live music, spoken word, film screenings, yoga, family activities, local vendors, community partners, health and wellness resources, giveaways, and more.
