This year, we have a unique opportunity to celebrate Father's Day and Juneteenth together. Join us for our Father's Day Marketplace, a special occasion dedicated to honoring fathers and inspiring them to be the pillars of our communities. On Sunday, June 19, bring your fathers, sons, daughters, and loved ones to create unforgettable memories.
The Father's Day Marketplace offers a wide range of experiences for fathers to enjoy. For a small entrance fee, they can curate their own day by choosing from various options. Delight their taste buds with a gastronomical experience featuring high-quality food and beverages. Help them relax and unwind with spa services provided by local businesses, including massages, nail treatments, and more. And equip them with valuable skills and knowledge through men-centered workshops that cover topics such as interview tips, personal style, and financial literacy.
Throughout the event, we will have guest speakers who will inspire and empower fathers, acknowledging their vital role in shaping the lives of their children and communities. We believe that when fathers are actively involved, positive outcomes follow for their children, including better academic performance, reduced likelihood of negative behaviors, and increased chances of success in life.
By attending the Father's Day Marketplace, not only will you create cherished memories with your loved ones, but you will also contribute to the betterment of our community. A portion of the proceeds will support programming at the Belafonte TACOLCY Center, including workshops for parents, men's summits, and initiatives focused on supporting incarcerated men and maintaining father-child relationships.
Join us as we come together to celebrate our history, honor our fathers, and uplift our community at the Soul in the City music festival and Father's Day Marketplace. Don't miss out on these incredible events that promise to leave a lasting impact on Liberty City and beyond.
