Join the Fairfax County Park Authority for a special Juneteenth commemoration event at the Sully Historic Site on Wednesday, June 19, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. This free event will honor the significant contributions of people, originally under enslavement and continuing after emancipation, to the operation of Sully as a home and farmstead. The event will pay tribute to their lives and those of their descendants.

Join in a commemoration of emancipation at this special event. Take a tour to better understand the daily life of people enslaved at Sully. Visit the dairy, smokehouse, kitchen and laundry, first floor of the main house, and a reproduction home for enslaved people. Interact with history interpreters, listen to storytellers, participate in activities and see the special exhibits.

HealthWorks will be there for you to receive a free health screening and information. Food trucks will be on site.
