Make a Plate! Juneteenth Food & Culture for Kids

New Haven Museum educator Rohanna Delossantos will  present, “Make a Plate! Juneteenth Food & Culture for Kids,” at the Pardee-Morris House on Sunday, June 22, 2025, at 2 p.m. Register here for this free family event for kids aged 12 and under. For weather updates check FB/IG or call 203-562-4183. 

During this special kids’ program, visitors will recreate a pretend feast using paper to make Juneteenth-inspired play food. The “menu” will include red foods (like hibiscus tea and red velvet cake), that are symbolic of power and transformation. Each family will take home a collection of play foods to continue the joyful celebration at home. Families are encouraged to bring a blanket to sit on.
