What is Juneteenth?

On June 19th, in 1865, in the aftermath of the Civil War, enslaved people were declared free under the terms of the 1862 Emancipation Proclamation. Since January of 1863, Union soldiers, many of whom were Black,  had been reading aloud the proclamation on plantations and in cities across the south as the Confederacy lost territory. It took until June 19th, 1865 for the enslaved people of Texas to be proclaimed free. The day was then celebrated as Juneteenth - our country's second independence day. It is an opportunity for our entire community to celebrate our shared freedom.

The mission of BHCT is to collaborate with our community to entertain, educate, and foster growth in the arts with a vision to serve as a creative and educational home that is inclusive, transformative, and inspirational for the entire community and the values of community engagement, inclusivity, innovation and creativity.


 Black Hills Community Theatre performs on the ancestral homelands of the Paha Sapa. We acknowledge we share this community with the Oceti Sakowin and the legacies of violence, displacement, migration and settlement that have brought our community together.
