Diversify Ice Hosts ‘Skate Raiser’ to Honor Juneteenth and Skaters of Color

The Diversify Ice Foundation will host its 2021 "Skate Raiser" on June 19 to honor Juneteenth, a holiday that celebrates the end of slavery in the United States. The Skate Raiser, advertised as an "Ice-Teenth Fundraiser," will take place both in person and virtually with performances from rising champions in figure skating, community Learn to Skate opportunities, panel discussions, live music, dance classes, art exhibits and giveaways.
Besides incorporating carnival elements like games and prizes, Savary and his team have brought together organizations to make the event collaborative, culturally engaging and educational. Savary noted there are still many people who still do not recognize the barriers and challenges of skaters of color. For that reason, Diversify Ice has arranged panels and sessions to address the needs of diversity, equity and inclusion. Meanwhile, music and art organizations, such as Artbae, will be in attendance. A regular partner of Diversify Ice and the Skate Raiser, Artbae is an arts, entertainment and education-based lifestyle brand that promotes passion through purpose.
