Telfair kicks off Juneteenth events in Savannah with its 18th year observance of this celebration of freedom and culture. Family Day will
begin with a libation ceremony on the steps of the Jepson Center, accompanied by drummers and the African Spirit (Jamal Toure). Queen-Quet, Chieftess of the Gullah Geechee Nation, will present storytelling, followed by a featured performance by author and performer Ron Daise (Gullah Gullah Island). The Telfair Academy will also be open free to local residents in celebration of the ‘Craft Along the Coast’ exhibition, which includes the work of African American woodcarvers and basket makers.
FREE admission to the Jepson Center for local residents (Chatham, Effingham, Bryan, Liberty, Bulloch, Beaufort, and Jasper Counties).
