Please join us on Saturday, Sept. 14, for an afternoon of fun and fellowship at Halfway African American Cemetery, a historic site that was almost lost until cleanup began in 2020. Explore the cemetery, see progress made on exciting projects in the past year, and learn about plans for the future.

Stroll up our new driveway, created last winter, past the brand new cemetery sign, installed this summer. We’ll have tours, light food, drinks, door prizes, a silent auction, and more! Visit with cemetery descendants, historians, archaeologists, and our board of directors.

Tickets are $25, and sponsorships start at $100. Please use the Zeffy link below for tickets or sponsorships.
