Event Details:
Leimert Park Village welcomed the community for a free Juneteenth celebration honoring freedom, culture, and resilience. Families, artists, vendors, and neighbors gathered for a day of music, cultural performances, food, family-friendly activities, community resources, and guest speakers.
Playing for Keeps brought soccer into the celebration with a pop-up play space where children could step onto temporary turf, pick up a ball, and play. The activity offered a welcoming way for kids to move, try soccer, and enjoy the game as part of the community gathering.
Organizer Information:
The Leimert Juneteenth Community Celebration invited the public to gather in one of Los Angeles’ historic Black cultural districts for a day of unity, reflection, and celebration. Through music, cultural performances, local food and vendors, family-friendly activities, community resources, and guest speakers, the event honored the meaning of Juneteenth and celebrated the culture and resilience of the community.
This free celebration was open to the public.
2026 Awards Dinner & Fundraiser
Join us on December 3rd from 5 to 11 PM for an evening built for impact — a silent auction stacked with once-in-a-lifetime sports and travel experiences, a room full of people who believe a play field can change a community, and the kind of night that marks not just a celebration, but a commitment. Because this isn’t just an awards dinner or fundraising event. It’s the first chapter of something built to last.
Be there for the inaugural Playing for Keeps Awards Dinner & Fundraiser — where the game starts, and the real win is what we build for the kids who come after us.
Upcoming Events, Field Installations & Coalition Dinners
Change doesn’t happen behind a desk. It happens in neighborhoods, at city halls, on school grounds, and in the streets. Join us at our upcoming events — and see where we’ve already shown up to create access to play for every child.
