What is the Journey to Juneteenth?
Hujambo Wasafiri (Hello Travelers in Swahili)! The Journey to Juneteenth is a multi-month Scavenger Hunt that serves as an interactive journey educating participants on the history of the Juneteenth Celebration from it’s origins to it’s present day celebration while having fun interacting with different locations, sponsors and vendors from the upcoming Juneteenth Central Oregon Celebration!
Welcome to The First Leg of the Journey to Juneteenth Interactive Scavenger Hunt!
Now that we have the rules out of the way, let’s dig into your first clue, Wasafiri! You are at Open Space Event Studios! Here are your instructions:
- Find the Sankofa Bird posted somewhere at Open Space. It’s in a fairly easy location. Things are ramping up so take a picture with/of it and share to your social media with the hashtags #JourneyToJuneteenth and #DiscoveringOurRoots.
- Tag @TheFathersGroup and @OpenSpaceEventStudios in your post
- Clue for the next leg of the challenge: Make your way to Northwest Tin Pan Alley, Bend and look for the Sankofa Bird. Inside, you will find your next clue!
