PLAZA DEL MAR PARK IN SANTA BARBARA

 

Juneteenth Santa Barbara is a local celebration of the national Black Independence Day. It is a collaborative effort to showcase Black culture, talent, and joy in Santa Barbara County. This eighth annual event centers around a free community celebration that invites the community to enjoy local live music, dancing, poetry, spoken word, artist exhibitions, storytelling, kids zone, beer and wine garden, and food trucks. We will also have the Black Artisan Market, which includes Black-led community organizations showcasing their work at their own booths.

Join us and explore Juneteenth Santa Barbara!
