Join in the commemoration of this important date in American history commemorating June 19, 1865, the day when Major General Gordon Granger ordered the final enforcement of the Emancipation Proclamation in Texas at the end of the American Civil War. As a national holiday, collaborators in Albany are joing together again this year to commemorate in a variety of ways this important date in American history.

Stay tuned for more details as plans take shape. Stay tuned to this calendar, to Facebook and Instagram and Bluesky, to local news announcements and community calendars.
