Reverend Josiah Henson worked tirelessly throughout his life to advocate for freedom and education. Visitors are invited to participate in educational, hands-on activities that demonstrate what a child’s life was like in Dawn, the settlement he created after taking his family to Canada via the Underground Railroad.

The family-friendly event is appropriate for all ages. Free with paid admission.
