Juneteenth is more than a day of remembrance, it is a declaration of Black joy as resistance. At the Northwest African American Museum, we honor this powerful legacy with a celebration that is bold, vibrant, and full of life: Juneteenth: A Movement for Joy.

The Northwest African American Museum (NAAM) is housed in the historic Colman School building (built in 1909) which overlooks a beautiful, sprawling green park, named after rock legend, Jimi Hendrix, in the heart of Seattle’s Central District. See ongoing virtual series: Historians on Hope. Each week, NAAM features words of hope from notable African American historians in our #HistoriansOnHope virtual series.
