The Homewood-Flossmoor (HF) Juneteenth Festival organized by You Matter 2 is a celebration of African American culture as expressed through food, music, dance, and arts. Our mission is to provide an environment that celebrates and showcases the uniqueness, power, and endurance of African Americans.

Our vision is to have a community that is more knowledgeable and motivated to preserve our cultural heritage.
