Grounded in Memory: A Juneteenth Reflection at Mount Hope
Join us in honoring freedom and place—where walking the path becomes a way of remembering.
Saturday, June 21, 2025
11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
The Labyrinth at One Cheverly Circle, Cheverly, MD
Join us for a quiet, grounding gathering to honor Juneteenth—a day of freedom, memory, and transformation. Amid the stress and noise of our present political moment, we invite you into a space of pause, reflection, and restoration.
The labyrinth on the grounds of Mount Hope—a place with deep and complex roots—will be open for silent walking meditation. In a time when much of our nation’s history is being suppressed, we are committed to mindful remembering. The labyrinth is an offering of space for all who are feeling the weight of disconnection, fear, and urgency. Come as you are. Leave what you must. Let the land remember with you.
Please stop by anytime between 11am and 1pm. To get to One Cheverly Circle, look for 2602 Cheverly Avenue, walk up the gravel driveway across from 2602, and look to the left. We will be there to greet you. Dress comfortably and be prepared for light walking or seated meditation. We have finger meditation guides for those who attend but choose not to walk the grounds. If you have any questions, please contact us at mounthopecommission@gmail.com.
