sparc! at Juneteenth
Juneteenth celebrations always make us glow and last week’s Juneteenth was no different.
As we are each year sparc! the ArtMobile was at the National Center of Afro-American Artists (NCAAA) offering an openair art studio. People from all walks of life came together to create Juneteenth-themed journals with stamps, stickers, and decorative tapes.
Inside the museum, attendees also enjoyed making Juneteenth buttons! We loved seeing everyone's unique creations that spoke to themes of freedom and Black liberation.
A big thank you to all the speakers, performers, vendors, the Boston Juneteenth Committee, and the National Center of Afro-American Artists (NCAAA) for making this day of reflection and celebration possible.

Juneteenth Reflection 2023
Juneteenth was SO BEAUTIFUL!!! People of all ages and backgrounds joined sparc! the ArtMobile’s outdoor art studio to make art and celebrate Black Liberation. We made Freedom Journals, using Juneteenth themed stamps, colorful stickers, and decorative tapes. We also asked community members to reflect on “What does Freedom mean to me?” and creatively decorate quilt squares, prints of the Emancipation Proclamation, and “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” the Black National anthem.
We loved the 2nd annual Juneteenth parade that brought together a lively and joyous crowd. As the crowd processed down Walnut Ave we could see sparc!’s colorful wands waving in the wind! We had a full table all afternoon: creating, moving to the music, and connecting with each other on this historic holiday.
Thank you to all the speakers, performers, the Boston Juneteenth Committee, and the National Center of Afro American Artists (NCAAA) for hosting this day of reflection and celebration.
Unique journals were made!
So many colorful fabrics!
Traditional quilt sqaures.
A freedom poem!
Juneteenth is a milestone toward racial equality and acknowledges the brutal history of slavery while celebrating African American resilience.
Abraham Lincoln was born on this day in 1809. Lincoln became the 16th President of the United States in 1861, issuing the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863 that paved the way for the abolition of slavery.
While the Emancipation Proclamation was a critical step towards abolition, it did not end American slavery outright.
It wasn’t until June 19, 1865, more than two years after it’s signing, that formal abolition was enacted. And months later, still, before the 13th Amendment was constitutionally ratified.
