One Night In Boston – Celebrate Juneteenth and Black Music Month

Rooted in racial equity, healing, wellbeing, and joy, this year’s celebration will mark the beginning of establishing Juneteenth as America’s original Independence Day. The evening and weekend, organized in collaboration with a host of amazing organizational partners including BAMS, Boston Children’s Chorus, Boston Ujima Project, Boston While Black, Jazz Urbane, Project Step, and Roxbury Cultural District, will serve as the inaugural launch of an annual Juneteenth collaboration, One Night In Boston.

The night will include musical performances, a film premier and is an in-person event that will follow the latest Massachusetts guidelines. This weekend will also serve as a tribute to Black Music Month and part of All-Inclusive Boston.
