JUNETEENTH Community Festival

Come and Celebrate JUNETEENTH!

What is JUNETEENTH?

JUNETEENTH is a holiday celebrated on June 19 to commemorate the emancipation of enslaved people in the US. The holiday was first celebrated in Texas, where on that date in 1865, in the aftermath of the Civil War, enslaved people were declared free under the terms of the 1862 Emancipation Proclamation.

RECESS Education, Inc and the 13th Avenue Dream Center welcomes everyone to the 3rd Annual Juneteenth Community Festival.  The festival celebrates the spirit of cultural diversity while supporting small and minority owned businesses.
