About this event

  • 6 hours

Join us on June 15 as we celebrate Juneteenth 2024 as we celebrate Black culinary heritage with America's pastime, baseball. Through on-campus events, from culinary demonstrations to museum theater, and exhibitions including "More Than Brave: The Life of Henry Aaron," which explores the legacy of one of baseball's greatest players, and "Barbeque Nation," an exploration of the history of barbecue, we will highlight the legacy of Juneteenth and underscore the joyous union of food, family, and heritage.

Atlanta History Center

The Atlanta Historical Society was founded in 1926 to preserve and study Atlanta history. In 1990, after decades of collecting, researching, and publishing information about Atlanta and the surrounding area, the organization officially became Atlanta History Center. What began as a small, archival-focused historical society grew over the decades to encompass 33 acres of curated Goizueta Gardens, four historic houses, varied programming, and a range of signature and temporary exhibitions housed in the Atlanta History Museum (completed 1993).
