Please come out to celebrate and honor Juneteenth at this year’s parade and festival. The parade begins at 11am and there will be a fireworks display starting at 9pm.

The Craven County Democrats will be manning a booth and handing out children’s books. If you have new or used children’s books, donations are greatly appreciated and can be dropped off at the Craven County Democrats headquarters, every Thursday between 3pm and 6pm (1232 S. Glenburnie Road in New Bern). If you are unable to stop in during these times, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator to make other arrangements: volunteercoordinator@cravendemocrats.org.

Juneteenth events will be taking place all month long. For a full list of events, please visit the official Juneteenth of New Bern website.
