In this episode of What Remains, we head into the archives to uncover the story behind one of Fredericksburg’s most vibrant cultural traditions—the Black Arts Festival. As the city prepares to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the festival this September 26–28, we look back at its roots and the community that built it.

Join us as we connect past to present and honor the creativity, resilience, and vision that continue to shape the Black Arts Festival, 50 years strong.
