Lebanon’s Pickett Chapel kicks off Juneteenth with a free community festival packed with music, drama, crafts, fashion, and a motorcycle memorial ride—all while honoring deep-rooted history. At 2 PM, the newly dedicated Heritage Peace Garden unveils bricks forged by enslaved people in the 1800s, native plants from the chapel’s era, and benches under trees honoring local Black leaders. The event celebrates the legacy of C.L. Manier, J.C. Hellum, Katherine Hancock Cason, and Raymond Burns, blending celebration with reverence as the city gears up for Juneteenth on June 19th.
