Heyy Cousins! The 4th annual Hey Cousin Culture Fest: Celebrating Black Joy @ The Plaza will feature art, apparel, authors, crafts, non-profit, community organizations, and a variety of food vendors.

All will be entertained by performances from local artists and dance teams, and a DJ spinning all day! Stay tuned as performances are confirmed, a line-up will be announced.

This is a FREE to attend, community event, open to everyone!
