💛 THANK YOU, HARRISONBURG & ROCKINGHAM COUNTY! 💛

The Harrisonburg Rockingham African-American Festival would like to extend our heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who helped make this year’s festival and our 30th Anniversary celebration so special!

To our vendors, sponsors, volunteers, performers, community partners, families, supporters, and festival attendees—we could not do this without you. Your time, talents, businesses, energy, and continued support helped us create a celebration filled with culture, community, music, food, history, and Black excellence.

We also want to give a SPECIAL THANK YOU to everyone who supported our fundraising events throughout the year! Whether you purchased a ticket, donated, attended an event, shared our fundraisers, brought a friend, or simply encouraged us along the way—your support mattered. Your contributions helped us continue the work of bringing this celebration to our community.

Every fundraiser, sponsorship, volunteer hour, and act of support played a role in making this year possible. You invested in the vision, and we are truly grateful.

The Harrisonburg Rockingham African-American Festival is more than an event—it is a celebration of our history, culture, creativity, resilience, and community. We are proud to continue building something that brings people together and creates opportunities to celebrate African-American heritage and Black excellence right here in our community.
