Every year the African American Festival hosts a half a million people in Baltimore. Photographer Glenford Nunez was there to capture these images of one of our city’s premier cultural events.

On a personal note, What Weekly is seeking more contributors who are tied into the African American community in Baltimore in an effort to better represent the full diversity of our city. If you’re interested in contributing words, photography, music, or video that highlights the rich cultures in Baltimore, email us at charmcity@whatweekly.com.
