Annual Martin Luther King Day Celebration
Each year, the Museum honors the legacy of civil rights leader, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., with messages of unity, justice, and peace. These past years, his message has been especially important as communities continue to rise together to speak against injustice.
Join us as we honor Dr. King's legacy and recognize this year's Caryakid Award winner, Rev. Dr. Polly Sparks Turner.
