Juneteenth Augusta Events
Juneteenth Augusta extends beyond Festival Day. Throughout the celebration period, we host curated events that highlight entrepreneurship, culture, service, and entertainment. Each event is designed to engage a different segment of our community while strengthening the overall movement.
A Week of Events. One Movement.
Each event within Juneteenth Augusta is intentionally designed to engage different segments of our community—from families and youth to entrepreneurs, artists, and civic leaders. While each experience serves a unique purpose, together they create a unified movement that promotes culture, education, economic empowerment, and community connection across the Augusta region.
Canvas & Culture
Sponsorship Opportunities Available Canvas & Culture is a creative experience that brings people together through art, culture, and community. Guests will participate in a guided painting session while enjoying music, conversation, and a relaxed atmosphere designed to inspire creativity and connection. Whether you come for the art, the culture, or simply a great night out, Canvas & Culture offers a unique space to create, unwind, and celebrate creativity together. $40 Early bird; $55 General Admission Grants entry to the event with access to one (1) glass of complimentary wine, one (1) 11x14 canvas (paint included), and hors d'oeuvres.

Community Cleanup
The Juneteenth Community Clean-Up brings volunteers together to help improve the appearance of parks, streetscapes, and public spaces across the CSRA through litter removal and beautification efforts. This initiative promotes community pride, environmental responsibility, and collective action while helping create cleaner, more welcoming neighborhoods. The effort reflects the spirit of Juneteenth by encouraging unity, service, and shared responsibility for our community.
