Start your Juneteenth weekend with rhythm, reflection, and joy at the 2025 Juneteenth Drum Circle at Historic Mitchelville Freedom Park! This high-energy, family-friendly event is both a celebration and a ceremony, blending the vibrant beats of African drumming with a meaningful tribute to the past. It’s a powerful and uplifting way to honor where we’ve been while celebrating where we’re going—together.
The evening begins with a libation ceremony, an age-old African tradition that honors our ancestors and gives thanks for the blessings of the present. It is a moment of connection, respect, and remembrance.
Led by Yoruba priests and community leaders, this sacred ceremony opens our celebration in a spirit of unity, grounding us in the powerful history of Mitchelville and the Gullah Geechee culture.
