Immerse yourself in a profound overnight experience at Historic Mitchelville Freedom Park with Joe McGill of The Slave Dwelling Project during the 2024 Juneteenth Celebration. This unique sleepover event is an invitation to reflect on history, freedom, and the stories that have shaped the experiences of formerly enslaved people across America.
The evening begins with an al fresco traditional Gullah dinner, providing a taste of local heritage cuisine, and art and crafts vendors, followed by a night under the stars in the serene setting of the park. Participants will be provided with basic camping gear, including tents (for the first 10 groups registered), but are encouraged to bring their own comfort items such as sleeping bags, cots, pillows, and camp chairs to enhance their overnight experience.
