3-8pm
“Back to Our Roots” Earth Day Music Festival
Earth Day Sunday, April 21, 2024,
Rosenwald School Acres,
639 Rosenwall Rd, Huntsville, TX 77340. www.EarthDayJamFest.com.
This free “Old-School Music” festival on the “old school” grounds celebrates the land and the memories of the founders of Walker County’s first Black public primary school. Walker County’s Rosenwald School Road (currently misspelled) once dead-ended at this oasis of education for black families in the early-mid 1900’s.
“Back to our Roots” has been sponsored by grants from H-E-B, Awesome Without Borders, numerous local organizations, individuals and Huntsville businesses.
With this support we have been able to benefit the Samuel Walker Houston Museum and allow the community to feel welcomed once again on their beloved school grounds.
Proceeds from this festival benefit the continuing non-profit historic education and preservation projects of the Houston Informer Foundation, Inc. (see “Steppin’ Back in Time” below); the Kittrell-Wilson Cemetery Restoration (where the founders/caretakers of the Rosenwald School#1 are buried) and the community utilization and environmentally friendly modernization of Walker County’s original Tuskegee - Rosenwald School Acres. (www.rosenwaldacres.com )
Houston Informer Foundation Inc’s “Step’ Back in Time: “Huntsville Heroes” Juneteenth Photo Exhibit, June 2024. This East Texas expansion of HIFI’s hugely successful traveling history Photo Exhibits in Houston will continue in 2024 in the Huntsville area. The exhibits highlight the accomplishments of oft-over-looked Texas historical figures who —despite Jim Crow—were determined to improve the lives, educational access and business opportunities of East Texas’ African-American communities.
The Houston Informer and Texas Freeman newspaper first hit the streets in 1893. The newspaper became the hub of a multi-city chain… chronicling/reporting the news for Black communities in Houston, Dallas, Galveston, Huntsville, Beaumont, Austin, New Orleans and greater East Texas--unifying the communities they served. By the 1950s, the paper became a major player in advancing the call for civil rights for citizens of African descent.
"Huntsville Heroes”... A full blown outdoor June, 2024 exhibit, curated by Linda Moten, of the Samuel Walker Houston Museum, Elementary and High School alumni organizations.
We propose the exhibit as outdoor whole or segmented displays at several proposed locations: he Huntsville Library, Walker County Courthouse; and the lawns of Sam Houston University Museum, Samuel Walker Houston Museum, Walker County Museum).
