Nathan Ross, Inc. held it's First Annual “North Central Florida Juneteenth Gospel Festival”

on Saturday, June 23, 2018, at the Citizens Field in Gainesville, Florida. The festival provided positive musical entertainment and historical knowledge while commemorating an historical event that impacted the lives of millions throughout the Southern United States of America.

​

The festival also included culinary arts; local, regional, and international gospel music recording artists; as well as visual arts. The festival brought together people from throughout North Central Florida and the Southeastern United States.

​

We have since joined together with the City of Gainesville, Duke Energy, Harley Davidson of Gainesville, The Cotton Club Museum & Cultural Center, the AKA Twenty Pearls Foundation, Visit Gainesville, Alachua County and more to celebrate our "Journey to Juneteenth," which takes place from May 20th through June 19th. Although our festival now incorporates more than just gospel music, the "North Central Florida Juneteenth Gospel Festival" laid the foundation for our organization to build great relationships with the community and set the precedence for creating fun, family-centered, cultural events for all neighbors to enjoy.

​

Please join us as we continue to commemorate and celebrate Florida's journey

from Emancipation to Juneteenth!
