Day of Unity and Healing @ Historic Sotterley

This event is free and open to the public; guests should register in advance at Historic Sotterley's Day of Unity and Healing landing page.

This year’s Day of Unity and Healing embraces the theme “From Legacy to Unity,” exploring how the history that shaped our community continues to influence our present and how we can come together to build a more connected and compassionate future.

This descendant-led event centers on shared history, healing, and education by bringing together descendants and interfaith and community leaders to recognize the interconnectedness of our lives and to honestly confront Sotterley’s past and build unity. The ceremony will begin at 10:00 am and will include a bell ringing ceremony to honor the lives and sacrifices of those who came before us.

After the ceremony, there will be wagon tours, open house tours, music by Casual Groove Band, a documentary quilt exhibit, archaeology updates from our community partners, and holistic health screenings. More information and an exact schedule are coming soon.
