Juneteenth – NWPL Closed

June 19, 2023

The Norman Williams Public Library will be closed on Monday, June 19, in observance of Juneteenth (short for “June Nineteenth”), commemorating the end of slavery in the United States. On June 19, 1865, federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, to take control of the state and ensure that all enslaved people be freed. While considered the longest-running African American holiday, it only officially became a federal holiday in 2021.
