What is Find Your People Week?!
Every year during Juneteenth, we go all in on what we’re really about…
finding your people.
Find Your People Week is a citywide celebration powered by Where Y’all At Though?!, dedicated to building real connection, joy, and culture for Black folks in Austin. We curate over a full week of events, collaborations, and popups with one purpose in mind: to help you feel seen, held, and at home.
Whether you’re new to the city or been here for a minute, this week is about making sure you don’t have to do it alone. From an adult field day to Auntie’s House, exclusive popups, and family-friendly linkups; there’s something for everybody.
Pull up solo and leave with your crew. Or bring the whole fam and vibe out with folks who just get it. This ain’t just a celebration, it’s a cultural reunion, a safe space, and a reset all in one.
Because finding your people shouldn’t feel like a luxury. It should feel like coming home.
