Turn the Page: A Day of Community
A Juneteenth Celebration + Alt-Pride After Dark
Roots & Resistance is a full-day, full-spectrum celebration of freedom, legacy, resistance, and queer joy — hosted by Queerolina at Durty Bull.
This is a completely free, community-powered event uplifting BIPOC and LGBTQ+ creatives through art, performance, and collective celebration.
🌞 Daytime Celebration (10 AM – 5 PM)
The day begins with a family-friendly Juneteenth gathering rooted in remembrance, resilience, and community care.
From 10 AM – 5 PM, enjoy:
• A curated vendor market featuring BIPOC and queer artists, makers, and small businesses
• Handmade goods, art, apparel, prints, cultural items, and more
• Outdoor activities throughout the day
• Family-friendly programming from 10 AM – 2 PM
• Burlesque in the Barrel Room from 3 PM – 5 PM
This portion of the event centers honoring the past, celebrating the present, and planting roots for the future.

🎶 The In-Between (5 PM – 7 PM)
As the sun sets, music carries us from reflection into release. Stick around, grab food or a drink, and let the energy build.

🌙 Alt-Pride After Dark (7 PM – 2 AM)
When night falls, Roots & Resistance transforms into Alt-Pride — Queerolina’s after-dark Pride celebration.
From 7 PM – 2 AM, expect:
• A high-energy queer vendor market continuing into the evening
• Drag, burlesque, and bold performances
• Strut, Slut — North Carolina’s sluttiest drag and burlesque competition
• A late-night DJ dance party
This is Pride unfiltered — loud, expressive, sweaty, and unapologetically community-driven.

Throughout the entire day and night, vendors will be set up, creating space to shop intentionally and support BIPOC and queer creatives directly.
Roots & Resistance is about honoring where we come from and celebrating who we are becoming.
Come for the community.
Stay for the joy.
Support the creatives.
Take up space.
This is ours.
