Join us for the Cultural Talent Expo, the electrifying evening continuation of the Juneteenth Family and Arts Festival and a vibrant showcase of Asbury Park’s best local talent! Hosted by the Cazzeek Brothers, this free event features a range of incredible performances — from soul-stirring singers and DJs to captivating spoken word artists. The lineup highlights the richness and creativity of this dynamic city by the sea.

The Cultural Talent Expo serves as both a platform for emerging talent and a continuation of the Juneteenth’s celebration of freedom, expression and community. It is an immersive experience where music, language and storytelling come together to reflect the beauty and diversity of the African diaspora.

DJ RunLuv sets the tone with a musical tribute spanning Motown to today. Rochelle Miller, known as LaChocolateBox, delivers spoken word that cuts straight to the soul. Pao Pao bridges languages and continents through music that defies category. Cameron “The Voice” brings the kind of presence that silences a crowd.

The Cazzeek Brothers have long been pillars of Asbury Park, dedicating their work to uplifting youth and community. This evening is that mission made manifest.

Whether you’re a longtime supporter of the arts or just looking for a great night out, this is your chance to experience the heartbeat of Asbury Park’s creative scene. Bring your friends, grab a spot on the lawn and enjoy an afternoon of music, movement and powerful storytelling under the summer sky.

This event is part of the larger Inspire Life Juneteenth Festival, which includes Corridor of Creativity, the Juneteenth Family & Arts Festival and KYDS: Soul Care in the Park. Inspire Life is a community-driven organization dedicated to uplifting culture, creativity and connection.
