Happy Memorial Day


Please visit Sunrise Mansion & Art Gallery's fascinating display of history and a recreation of the famous cemetary and monument dedicated to 251 black soldiers exhumed from a Charlotte, NC mass grave. Pay tribute to the sacrifices made by men of African descent to demonstrate their patriotism, in pursuit of freedom.  Come learn about our current holiday's origins as Decoration Day and a commemoration of black Union veterans of the American Civil War, especially these most recently acknowledged, who finally have the resting place that they deserve.  The installation will be on display until June 1st  at
