St. Catharines holding Emancipation Day celebrations

Emancipation Day STC returns with a vibrant celebration of freedom, history, and community from July 20 to August 1.
 
The multi-day event features activities for all ages, with the grand finale — the “Big Picnic” — taking place on Sunday, July 27 at Lakeside Park in Port Dalhousie.
 
Kicking off the festivities is the “Walk to Freedom” on July 20 — a free, guided tour through the historic 1850s Black community in Downtown St. Catharines, led by heritage trail historian Ken Johnston.
 
Johnston has spent years retracing the paths of freedom seekers across the U.S., following in the footsteps of those who escaped slavery in search of freedom in the north.
