“Juneteenth NY” organizes the 13th annual celebration in Brooklyn – Telemundo New York (47)

NEW YORK – With Juneteenth and Father’s Day coinciding this year, “Juneteenth NY” is hosting a celebration that will highlight both holidays.

The organization was designed to celebrate and empower the African American community while educating others on how to change the narrative about the history of race.

There will be a summit, a festival and a concert for three days. Each event is free to participants and is aimed at people of all ages.

The Day of Health and Wellness “Mind, Body and Soul” is the first event that will kick off the celebration of its virtual summit on June 17. Attendees can participate in panel discussions and take part in cooking classes, yoga and nutrition sessions.

The remaining days of the festival will be face-to-face events. On June 18, the festival will take place in Linden Park from 10 am to 6 pm and will feature 100 vendors, home goods and community talent.

All Father’s Day events will be held in Prospect Park. The day will begin with games, exercise sessions, a fashion show and will end with a live concert.

In 2020, the organization saw more than 20,000 attendees at its remote event. They now expect more than 25,000 people for this year’s weekend of events.
