Annual Juneteenth Freedom Celebration
In 2020 several local Wylie families under the direction of Jacoby Stewart met in Founder’s park with our barbecue grills for a spontaneous Juneteenth celebration. That small moment a year later led to the formation of the Juneteenth Organization of Wylie (JOW) and Wylie’s Annual Juneteenth Freedom Celebration.
We are a small committee of dedicated Wylie residents who volunteer with our hearts, vision, and time to bring more cultural events to the City of Wylie that represent all its citizens. We are parents, educators, small business owners, retirees, veterans, and public service workers.
