About this event

  • 6 hours

The Progressive Missionary Baptist Association will host our 4th Annual Juneteenth Freedom on Wednesday, June 19, 2024, in the beautiful City of Riceboro, GA. We honor the sacrifice of our ancestors & share the cultural heritage of slaves and their descendants through entertainment, art, education, and an ever-present, always-developing sense of community. The Juneteenth Freedom Festival celebrates African American culture, heritage, and, most importantly, abolition of slavery. This is an opportunity for all races, nationalities, and religions to join hands and truthfully acknowledge a period in history that shaped and continues to influence our society today.
