HARRISBURG, PA – PennDOT announced today that all driver's license and photo centers, including its full-service center in Harrisburg, will be closed Saturday, June 17, through Monday, June 19, in observance of the Juneteenth holiday.

June 19, known as Juneteenth National Freedom Day, is an official annual observance in Pennsylvania.

Juneteenth marks June 19, 1865, when Union soldiers reached Galveston, Texas – the furthest point in the South – with news of the end of the Civil War.
