The festival is more than just entertainment; it’s a community event as well.

Mayor Brandon Scott called AFRAM “a big Black Baltimore family reunion” in the past, which is aided by the fact it’s one of the biggest African American festivals on the East Coast.

AFRAM will also provide ten $1,000 grants to nonprofit and community organizations that host existing and established Juneteenth events, which is a continuation of what they’ve done in the past.
