About this event
Join the Peter Wentz Farmstead in observation of Juneteenth, the holiday commemorating the emancipation of Black enslaved people in America. We will be offering special tours throughout the weekend focusing on the stories of the people enslaved by the Wentz family, the enslaved people brought to the Farmstead by Washington during his encampment here, and how these stories connect to the larger history of slavery in early Pennsylvania.
Tours will run every half hour throughout the weekend. Space is limited.
All ages; FREE.
