The festival will celebrate its 11th year of existence, which was created to commemorate the 61-year anniversary of the founding of the Ocean City Community in 1949, which was the first area developed for African-Americans to purchase and own coastal property in North Carolina, 15 years before the Civil Rights Act. 

The festival will be held virtual this year and the live streaming will take place on July 3rd.
