Art

Inside the Automobile Building, visitors will be transported into a realm of creativity and innovation as they explore a mind-blowing art installation featuring the works of exceptional visual artists from across the metroplex. Art isn't just an accessory to our festival; it's woven into the very fabric of our mission. We believe in the transformative power of public art to engage communities in ways that defy societal norms and foster connection. This belief is evident in the diverse array of artwork on display, each piece speaking volumes about the resilience, heritage, and spirit of Juneteenth. But our commitment to art doesn't stop there. We're bringing creativity to the forefront with a mural installation inside the Fair Park Amphitheatre. This mural serves as a symbol of unity and collaboration, inviting corporations, non-profits, churches, and community members to roll up their sleeves and become part of the artistic process. Volunteers will have the opportunity to leave their mark on history by contributing to this monumental artwork.

Affordable Housing Summit

Housing is not just a basic necessity; it's a fundamental human right. Yet, far too often, access to safe, affordable housing remains out of reach for many in our community. The Affordable Housing Summit serves as a platform to confront this issue head-on, to spark meaningful dialogue, and to inspire concrete action toward positive change. Our partners at Good Urban Development and The Epiphany Development Foundation, led by Shannon Brown-Key, have already taken bold steps by breaking ground on 50 new homes in the Mill City neighborhood. This is not just about construction; it's about building hope, stability, and opportunity for residents. By working closely with local banking partners, we're ensuring that these homes are not just bricks and mortar, but pathways to economic empowerment and community resilience. But our efforts don't stop there. We believe in leading by example, and we invite all stakeholders to join us on this journey toward making housing more affordable for the residents of South Dallas. Whether you're a developer, a policymaker, a financial institution, a media representative, or a concerned citizen, your voice and your actions matter. Together, we can dismantle barriers, challenge the status quo, and create a future where every individual has access to safe, affordable housing. Join us at the Affordable Housing Summit, and let's turn words into deeds, visions into realities, and challenges into opportunities for meaningful change. Together, we can build a brighter, more equitable future for all.
