🌿♻️ It All Starts Tomorrow! Join Us for CVUU’s 5th Annual Buy Nothing Fair! ♻️🌿

Have a garage, closet, or storage shelf that could use a little breathing room? Tonight is your last chance to gather those treasures and bring them to our Buy Nothing Fair tomorrow, Saturday, June 20, from 10 AM–2 PM in the CVUU Social Hall!

This isn't a yard sale—it's a celebration of community, sustainability, and sharing. Bring items you no longer need and discover something new-to-you, all at no cost. Together, we're keeping useful items out of landfills and building connections with our neighbors.

✨ Tomorrow’s Highlights:
🎁 Buy Nothing Fair (10 AM–2 PM)
Bring and browse books, games, tools, electronics, art supplies, plants, musical instruments, home décor, and more!
Please, no clothing or bedding.

🎭 Talent Showcase (11 AM–12 PM, Sanctuary)
Enjoy music, poetry, storytelling, magic, dance, theater, and other performances from our talented community.

🛍️ Silent Auction (12:30 PM, Social Hall)
Bid on special items while supporting CVUU programs including the food pantry, free library, seed exchange, and other community initiatives.

📦 Item drop-off begins at 8 AM.

Let's turn spring cleaning into community building! Bring what you can, take what you need, and help create a more generous, connected, and sustainable world.

🎨✨ Juneteenth Art Show Reception at CVUU 809 Gallery ✨🎨

Join us this Friday from 6–8 PM for the opening reception of a solo exhibition by Hampton Roads artist and musician Xavier Darryl Lewis.

Known for his bold colors, punk rock influences, and creative use of unexpected surfaces—including skateboards, bike helmets, and boots—Xavier's work is a vibrant celebration of imagination, culture, and self-expression.

His artwork was recently selected for a City of Norfolk banner featuring Lady Liberty, Lady Justice, and Lady Freedom reimagined as strong, beautiful African American women.

🖼️ Many works will be available for purchase.
📍 CVUU 809 Gallery, Virginia Beach
🗓️ Friday, 6–8 PM

Come celebrate Juneteenth through art, creativity, and community!

06/19/2026

Juneteenth commemorates the day in 1865 when enslaved people in Texas learned they were free, marking a significant milestone in the long struggle for freedom and justice in the United States.

For Unitarian Universalists, Juneteenth is both a celebration and a call to action. It reminds us of our commitment to equity, justice, and the inherent worth and dignity of every person, while challenging us to continue dismantling racism and building a more inclusive world.

Looking for ways to celebrate? Check out this list of Juneteenth music, cultural, and community events happening in our Virginia Beach here: https://bit.ly/4eyQCyH

Also, Hampton Roads Transit will offer free fares on all buses, ferries, and The Tide light rail throughout Friday.❤️🖤💚💛
