DOCO Al Fresco and the Sacramento Kings Celebrate

 Juneteenth this Weekend

-- Art, Live Music and DJ Performances During DOCO Al Fresco with Physically Distanced Tables --

Sacramento, Calif. - DOCO (Downtown Commons), the Sacramento Kings, and Golden 1 Center will commemorate and honor Juneteenth with art, music and DJ performances on Saturday, June 19.

From 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. diners will enjoy performances by AYE TEE, Hayez and DJ Abs 1er. In addition, art from local Black artists has been curated by Black Artist Foundry on the digital screens at the Grand Entrance of Golden 1 Center and near the corner of L and 5th Streets.

This celebration builds on the Sacramento Kings commitment to combat social and racial injustice and invest in meaningful change. In June 2020, the team developed the Pledge to Our Black Community and over the course of the last year has worked with the community to be a part of the solution through sustained action. Additionally, the organization designated Juneteenth as a company-wide annual paid holiday to reflect, educate and participate in civic engagement.

DOCO Al Fresco is offered Fridays from 4 to 10 p.m., Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., and Sundays from 2 to 9 p.m., weather permitting, with free live musical entertainment scheduled regularly.
