About the event
We are still here. We have always been here.
In a city that constantly shifts, erases, and rebuilds, this is a moment to stand firm in who we are and take up space without asking.
Say It Louder is a Juneteenth gathering rooted in Black expression, creativity, and presence. This space centers voices that deserve to be heard and artists who carry culture forward every day.
This is not quiet. This is not small. This is not temporary.
This gathering will take place at Saint James Libations, a Black Queer Women-owned wine bar. Showing up matters, but supporting matters more. Come ready to buy, tip, and invest in the space. Community is what keeps places like this alive.
Expect a powerful open mic, a living art gallery, and a crowd that understands the weight, beauty, and truth behind every word, every piece, and every performance.
