Give Sanctuary Festival

“Give Sanctuary was conceived to protect the culture of communities of color. In order to combat the current removal of the history made by African Americans, we must preserve it. Using our collective skills, talents and resources, we can showcase culture through fellowship. Imagine a festival with the spirit of a revival, the familiarity of a reunion, the experience of a carnival and the intentionality of a summit,” said Valeasia Walker, Founder of Give Sanctuary Festival.

Guests are encouraged to make an offering to preserve, celebrate or fellowship in the name of culture. Their offerings will be used to create the festival including a temporary community-built sanctuary. Visitors will have an opportunity to interact with vendors, listen to soul stirring sounds, enroll the youngsters in The Descendants Village Academy for STEAM-friendly activities and plan for their futures with estate planners and archivists on hand.

Give Sanctuary Festival is free and open to the public.

To make an offering for sponsorship and vendor opportunities or to make donations, email grow @ urbandesignoutreach.com
