The state of New York recognized JUNETEENTH as an official state holiday. See https://www.governor.ny.gov/news/governor-cuomo-signs-legislation-designating-juneteenth-official-public-holiday-new-york-state.
MusicUNTOLD is a national leader in producing JUNETEENTH concert
celebrations featuring headliners in multiple genres including jazz,
symphony, opera, African, gospel, and popular music.
MusicUNTOLD partnered with
City of Long Beach, Ca. Park Recreation & Marine Department to
present free JUNETEENTH celebrations featuring Grammy winners Andrae
Crouch in 2005 and Shirley Caesar in 2006. After the City of Long Beach
Parks Recreation & Marine Department discontinued City funding of
JUNETEENTH, MusicUNTOLD presented the only JUNETEENTH Celebration in the
nation held in a major downtown venue-The Long Beach Performing Arts
Center- in 2010. The concert featured the 2010 Best World Music artist,
Salif Keita from Mali, Africa. MusicUNTOLD is devoted to presenting
arts and educational programs that promote diversity and human dignity.
