As we approach the month of June, a significant event is on the horizon - the annual Columbus County Juneteenth Festival in Whiteville. This celebration honors the emancipation of enslaved individuals in the United States and is a time for reflection, education, and commemoration.

The festival offers a diverse range of activities for attendees to participate in, such as the kickoff event, Western Style Gala, Brunch, Paint & Sip, and Empowerment week. These events provide a platform for the community to come together, learn, and celebrate this important moment in history. To stay updated on event times, locations, and how to get involved, the festival's website is a valuable resource. In addition to event information, the website features a blog section where community members can share their own experiences and perspectives on Juneteenth. This creates a space for dialogue and storytelling, enriching the overall festival experience. For those interested in becoming vendors at the festival, an Eventbrite link makes the payment process simple and convenient. Community agencies looking to participate can fill out a brief information form on the website. The festival organizers can be contacted via email for any further inquiries or details. In line with the spirit of Juneteenth, the website design incorporates the vibrant colors of the Pan-African flag, symbolizing unity and heritage. This thoughtful touch adds to the overall atmosphere of the event and underscores the importance of cultural representation and pride. As we eagerly anticipate this year's Columbus County Juneteenth Festival, let us come together to celebrate, learn, and honor the sacrifices and resilience of those who came before us. It is a time to reflect on our shared history and move forward with a renewed sense of unity and purpose. Let's make this year's celebration a memorable and meaningful experience for all who participate.
