Organized and sponsored by OneMamaroneck. Juneteenth is about the acknowledgment that the persons enslaved in Texas were finally notified on June 19, 1865, that they were free according to the Emancipation Proclamation that was signed on January 1, 1863.

This year's OneMamaroneck theme is the Promises of Freedom: Honoring our Past, Present, and Future. We will be honoring the Mothers of Black Community for our past; Jarrett Winchester, Larry Albert, David Vaughn, Rhunette Mitchell, and Lavet Allen as our Present, and the Multicultural Student Union and the BIPOC Student Union at Mamaroneck High School for our Future. Please join us on a day of fun, culture, and freedom.

Please note Village offices are OPEN on Monday, June 19. Regular garbage, organic, rubbish, and food scrap collection will take place on Monday, June 19. The Recycling Center, including the Compost Drop-Off Program, at 313 Fayette Avenue is open and the Marine Education Center at Harbor Island Park is also open.
