Commemorate Juneteenth with a contemporary twist: live sounds, conversation, and hands-on art for the entire family during this day-long celebration. This year brings many reasons to celebrate, particularly the Gantt’s 50th anniversary! Our Juneteenth program focuses on our youth's artistic perspectives, modern conversations surrounding the cross-cultural impact of Blackness, and the importance of positive exchange as a form of community care.
The lineup includes:
-A live performance from Leone and the Ascension
-An assortment of art workshops with The Broken Crayon, Tiya Caniel, and Carla-Aaron Lopez
-A wellness experience led by Abiola Ogunbekun
-An interactive historical and cultural analysis led by Dynasty
-A powerful panel titled "Black is the Trend", moderated by Perrine DeShield
-Special plant installation by Root Papi
-Young DJs from Do Greater Charlotte’s Art of DJing are hosting the day
-And more!
The 2024 Juneteenth at the Gantt programming was co-curated by Sir Will.
