The concept of cooperative economics - Ujamaa - is the lifeblood of any community. The exchange of goods and services is the engine of a community. The Juneteenth Village, represented by vendors in that section of the Green, symbolizes thriving towns like Greenwood in Tulsa, Oklahoma, often referred to as "Black Wall Street". Come and support the various entrepreneurs who welcome you and your families.
If you are a vendor interested in selling your wares in New Haven's "Black Wall Street", look for "Juneteenth Village" on the festival permit application. Happy Juneteenth 2022!
