Juneteenth Wreath Laying Ceremony

About this event

Macon Black Culture leads a Juneteenth Wreath Laying Ceremony at Rosa Parks Square in downtown Macon from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The midday observance honors enslaved ancestors and the Black Maconites whose work built the city, anchoring the broader Juneteenth Macon programming. Brief remarks, libations, and music accompany the wreath laying, with community members invited to participate. The downtown setting near the Tubman Museum and Douglass Theatre situates the ceremony at the heart of Macon's African American cultural corridor. A quiet, reflective companion to the larger festival and parade later in the month.
