Collection: Juneteenth Collection

What is Juneteenth? Juneteenth is a national holiday celebrated on June 19 to commemorate the emancipation of enslaved people in the US. The holiday was first celebrated in Texas, where on that date in 1865, in the aftermath of the Civil War, enslaved people were declared free under the terms of the 1862 Emancipation Proclamation. These flower arrangements as seen below were designed with traditional African flowers, textiles, and colors in mind.
