Remembering the Niagara Movement: A Pilgrimage to John Brown's Fort

Harpers Ferry National Historical Park invites the public to retrace the 1906 footsteps of the men and women of the Niagara Movement during a commemorative ranger guided walk. The guided walk will lead participants to the 1906 site of the John Brown Fort on the grounds of the Murphy Farm. The ceremony will include music, historic readings, and a memorial roll call of the members of the Niagara Movement. Those wishing to participate should drive directly to the Murphy Farm for parking. This program is made possible by the support of the Jefferson County branch of the NAACP and park volunteers.
