    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).
