The 2026 Annual Danbury Juneteenth Cultural Celebration and R&B and Soul Summer Concert was a resounding success, drawing an unprecedented 400 attendees and marking our largest event to date. It stood as a true testament of uniting the community in commemoration of this pivotal American holiday, recognizing our distinguished honorees and enjoying great performances, music, vendors & other festivities. We extend our sincerest gratitude to our Corporate Sponsors, community partners, program participants & volunteers whose efforts were invaluable.
