MyCity4Her CCO Monyka Berrocosa has been invited to participate in the planning of largest African American festival on the east coast. The festival is set to take place July 2-3, 2011 at M&T Bank Stadium in downtown Baltimore.
Ms. Berrocosa has always been an advocate for inclusiveness and multicultural heritage.
“I am truly honored to be working with the other contemporaries on board,” she said.
Baltimore’s festival of African American music and culture has been a regional tradition for more than 30 years. This ultimate destination for the July 4th weekend hosts as many as 500k visitors enjoying world-class entertainment, celebrity challenges, the Baltimore SuperStar, the African American Film Festival and dynamic exhibits of arts, education and heritage.
The festival is presented by Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake and produced by greiBO Entertainment with the support of a local festival steering committee. And for the first time in history, the African American Festival will feature Radio One’s Stone Soul Picnic — making it the signature event for the summer.
