Juneteenth, a holiday celebrating the emancipation of enslaved persons in the United States, was observed with three events in 2021: Authors Night, Youth Night, and the Juneteenth celebration on June 19.

All three events took place at Bradley Academy Museum and Cultural Center at 415 S. Academy Street and were free to attend.
