What a joyful Juneteenth celebration at the Louisiana Childrenā€™s Museum!

Families gathered to honor freedom, culture, creativity, and community through hands-on activities, storytelling, music, and movement. Guests explored the meaning behind Adinkra symbols through handkerchief stamping, created colorful collage quilt squares with the Helis Foundation John Scott Center, and danced, drummed, and sang along with ROOTED Cultural Tours as we celebrated African heritage and the rich cultural traditions that continue to shape New Orleans.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in commemorating Juneteenth and making this day of learning, reflection, and joy so special.
