The Meaning Behind Juneteenth

Juneteenth marks June 19, 1865—the day enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas learned they were free, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. Today, it stands as a powerful symbol of liberation, resilience, and the continued fight for equity.

At The Corner Wedgewood, we believe in gathering with purpose. This Juneteenth, we open our doors to reflect, uplift, and honor this important moment in history through art, conversation, and community.

What to Expect

In partnership with Celebrate. Connect. Create., we’ll host a welcoming and intentional gathering centered around empowerment and connection.

  • A curated networking experience designed to spark dialogue and collaboration
  • Spotlights on local Black creatives and entrepreneurs
  • Guided conversations and opportunities to reflect

Live performance curated by One Take begins at 8:30 PM, featuring powerful sets from Nashville’s rising Black artists in our performance gallery space.

Our bar will be serving Juneteenth-inspired specialty cocktails alongside our signature offerings and zero-proof options, designed to reflect the vibrance and richness of Black culture.

Giving Back

While this is a free event, we will be accepting donations throughout the evening. All contributions will go directly to Celebrate. Connect. Create., supporting their ongoing work to build intentional spaces that empower, uplift, and unify the Black community.

Whether you’re able to give or simply attend, your presence contributes to the spirit of this celebration

Why This Night Matters

Juneteenth is a time to honor the past and recommit to progress. Through this evening of storytelling, music, and community building, we hope to create a space that reflects the depth and joy of the occasion. Our partners—Celebrate. Connect. Create. and One Take—help us make that possible.
