WE'RE BACK!!!
This Juneteenth, Connect 2 Rise is back for our 3rd Annual celebration — and we are building something intentional. A safe space where joy is the standard, community is the foundation, and every person in the room belongs. We are not just throwing an event. We are creating spaces that feel like home— a place where you can breathe, celebrate, create, and connect with people who are on the same mission. Come as you are. Leave knowing you are part of something bigger.

Connect 2 Rise built this annual gathering because community is infrastructure. When we gather intentionally, we build something no one can take from us.
Come through to connect, celebrate, and invest in each other.
Our location has change but the vibe remains the same! Still indoor and outdoor and we will try to keep it around 100 guest so everyone is comfortable during open mic!
