    NM Juneteenth: NMBLC Is a Sponsor!

    It’s time to party! Celebrate the richness of Black history and culture with vendors, food trucks, local and national performances, a kids’ corner and Juneteenth History lessons.

    NMBLC is a 2024 sponsor and will have a big presence, so stop by our luxurious booth to cool off, grab a drink, and say hi!

    This year’s theme is RECLAIMING OUR ROOTS.

    Event schedule:

    Celebrate the importance of education for our people, communities, culture, and heritage as we highlight our NM Black grads and their future endeavors.
