369th Experience

Entertaining and educational, an ongoing series of events take place at the Memorial on a regular basis. A recent Juneteenth concert by the 369th Experience, who recreates the famed ‘Harlem Hellfighters’ Regimental Band, is a vibrant example.

Bells of Peace: A World War I Remembrance

The Doughboy Foundation’s annual remembrance of the moment when WWI ended is a moving tribute that takes place at the Memorial and, through the Bells of Peace app, all across America.
Join us at 11am on November 11, 2024, for this year’s Ceremony.
