Juneteenth weekend travels through time with a celebration at this historic house. Join NCHM tour guides on a walk through the house’s former slave quarters and grounds as a reminder of why this holiday’s so important. Then enjoy live music from the Huston-Tillotson University faculty jazz ensemble, aka the Jeremy George Quintet, as well as a closing gospel performance by Christopher D. Spivey & Co. Make sure to swing by early for a free plate of barbecue lunch from the James Beard-nominated Damien Brockway (Distant Relatives), and stick around for the unveiling of the 36th Toni Morrison Society “Bench by the Road.” – James Scott
