In May of 1865, shortly after the Civil War, a group of formerly enslaved African Americans in Charleston organized the earliest known memorial celebration to honor Union soldiers who died in the Civil War.

This observance was a remarkable act of remembrance and assertion of freedom by the African American community. It highlights the central role African Americans played in the origins of Memorial Day, a history that was largely overlooked for many years.​

Our Summer of Sparkle Camp is officially enrolling ages 4–9!
