The Arsht Center's Heritage Committee is proud to present its inaugural Juneteenth Juke Joint!

The joint will start with a dope mix of music from the African Diaspora by the incomparable DJ Nickymix, followed by soulful sounds from Miami native and R&B singer LaVie, whose performance will take you through a dynamic voyage of Black music. The event will also feature poet Mo Beasley, producer of New York’s UrbanErotika series. Arrive when doors open at 6:30 p.m. to enjoy a specially curated menu featuring delicious soul food-inspired bites and libations.

Juneteenth Juke Joint pays homage to the rich history of Black music, culture and food in the American South. For generations, our country's "second Independence Day" has been celebrated with gatherings, cookouts, music, laughter and pride in Black freedom. We seek to create a space for Black joy and maintain an ever-present, always-developing sense of community.

Juneteenth Juke Joint is part of the Arsht Center’s Heritage Project series. The Heritage Project was created with a commitment to promote social equality and amplify Black voices. The Arsht Center celebrates Black artists in our community through the Heritage Project’s salon series, annual festival and other special events. Learn more here.
