Mark your calendars as the City of Newport News commemorates history and celebrates freedom with two Juneteenth events. Join us on June 12 at 1 p.m. in front of City Hall as we raise the Juneteenth flag in recognition of the end of slavery in the United States. Then come out to King-Lincoln Park on June 19 from 12 p.m. - 5 p.m. for the Freedom Festival, a free community event featuring musical entertainment, food and craft vendors, informational exhibits, and children’s activities.
