Juneteenth Celebration

Manhattan Youth is excited to celebrate Juneteenth at an event on Pier 25, from 11:00 am – 2:00 pm, on Sunday, June 19th. 

The celebration will include vendors, music, art, food, youth activities and more! Manhattan Youth wants to commemorate and celebrate Juneteenth with the community. 

As part of this event, MY would love to hear from the PPAS middle school students – especially what Juneteenth means to them. If your child would like to submit a creative expression, they would love to showcase it at the event. This can be a song or poem, an essay or story, a painting or photograph — all types of artistic expression are welcomed! 

Submit student submissions.  (Middle School Students Only)

If your child is interested in submitting their work, they have to submit it no later than Tuesday, June 14th.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Matthew McGlennen at mmcglennen@manhattanyouth.org.
