The History of Watch Night

On the night of Dec. 31, 1862, both free and enslaved African Americans gathered, many in secret, to ring in the New Year and await news that the Emancipation Proclamation had taken effect. This time of reflection, anticipation, and celebration came to be known as Watch Night. At Vineyard Columbus, we gather on New Year's Eve to continue this tradition of celebrating Watch Night to remember, reset, and look ahead to the coming year. It’s a special night for many and one we look forward to all year.

Watch this short video about the history of Watch Night below.
