Galveston Island Juneteenth Festival and Mural Dedication

In November of 2020, Sam Collins III and Juneteenth Legacy Project Committee Co-chair Sheridan Lorenz established the Juneteenth Legacy Project (J19LP) nonprofit, introduced with the unveiling of a five thousand square foot art installation titled “Absolute Equality”.

All are invited to attend the mural’s dedication on Juneteenth at 22nd Street and Strand in Galveston at 11:30 am. This year also marks the first Galveston Island Juneteenth Festival to follow at Kermit Courville Field, a “family friendly celebration of Freedom” featuring food vendors, live music, an entrepreneurs showcase, Black artist exhibition, and more. juneteenthlegacyproject.com.
