About the Project
The Tapestry of Black Voices Awards (TBVA) is a Juneteenth-centered, no-cost, community storytelling initiative presented by Conversations in Color, a nonprofit organization dedicated to uplifting and preserving Black voices through dialogue.
The Awards honor everyday stories shared through short, recorded conversations that reflect lived experience, culture, creativity, and community life. Submissions are reviewed and celebrated during a virtual Juneteenth awards experience in June 2026.
Volunteer opportunities are available across multiple phases, including early community outreach, submission support, and the Juneteenth virtual awards experience. Participation in the Awards is free, and volunteers play a vital role in helping ensure access, awareness, and inclusion across communities.
