Are you seeking a space to express yourself freely and celebrate your liberation? Look no further than the annual Tulsa Juneteenth Festival on the historic Greenwood Ave in Tulsa, Oklahoma. This festival is about creating a safe and inclusive environment for everyone to come together and celebrate the end of slavery in the United States. The festival celebrates the day when federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, in 1865 to take control of the state and free all enslaved people. This day, Juneteenth is the longest-running African-American holiday and serves as a reminder of the ongoing work towards freedom for all. At Juneteenth, they believe in holding space for celebration as a pathway to Healing. They want to provide a communal space for everyone to come together and enjoy living in the present moment.
