Bringing Juneteenth Home

Come Saturday, June 15, The Brooklyn Juneteenth Festival, a lively celebratory day-long event for all ages commemorating the arts and culture of the African Diaspora, moves to Bed-Stuy’s historic Herbert Von King Park (Lafayette Avenue, between Tompkins and Marcy Avenues), it was announced recently by event co-chairs Brenda Brunson-Bey (Tribal Truths) top left, and Spring McClendon (SCM Consultants).

Festival programming, including the vendor market, entertainment, awards, arts, information tables and booths for business and community service, will return, with new additions and surprises to the day’s 2024 programming schedule.
