“When we started the festival, it was meant as a platform for alternative black talent and to grow an audience we felt did not understand festival culture and therefore wouldn’t pay for it,” co-founder Matthew Morgan told Billboard.com in 2015. “We put a lot in by supporting the community for 10 years, so to have the community turn around and support the event, we were extremely happy about that.”
Tickets to the Carnival of Consciousness are on sale now. You can also volunteer and get an earned ticket by working on site.

Many of the homes will display their significant art collections, much created by local artists.
