Town of Fallsburg to Host 2025 NAACP Sullivan County Branch Juneteenth Celebration at Morningside Park

The Town of Fallsburg is proud to announce that it will host this year’s NAACP Sullivan County Branch Juneteenth Celebration on Thursday June 19, 2025, from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM at Morningside Park. This community-wide event is free and open to all.
Juneteenth marks the anniversary of the emancipation of enslaved African Americans in the United States. The celebration is a time to honor the past, embrace cultural heritage, and promote unity and progress. “We are honored to partner with the NAACP Sullivan County Branch to bring this important celebration to Morningside Park,” said a spokesperson for the Town of Fallsburg. “This event reflects our shared commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.”
This year’s Juneteenth event will feature live performances, speakers, vendors, cultural displays, youth activities, and community resources. “This is more than a celebration—it's a moment to reflect, to educate, and to build bridges in our community. We are excited to host Juneteenth in Fallsburg and welcome everyone to be a part of this powerful day of unity. Each year we grow stronger and more connected as a community. Juneteenth is a reminder of how far we’ve come and how far we still must go. This event is for everyone to learn, celebrate, and uplift one another. Our focus is the youth. It is imperative that children have good role models. They can listen to narratives of past and help them understand how we have overcome and triumphed! Events like these will help them learn to advocate and overcome any injustices that they may face and develop a true sense of community.” said Alasha Santiago, Vice President of the NAACP Sullivan County Branch and Juneteenth Chairperson.
