Join for live performances, discussion, films, and crafts that reflect on, and honor, the civil rights leader. Let us know you're coming. Click here to RSVP online.

Enjoy live performances by ConneXions School for the Arts and the North Dorchester High School Choir. Connexions will combine dance, music, and theater in a tribute performance to Dr. King. The choir's repertoire promises a stirring mix of works by Moses Hogan, "Up the Mountain," "The Color Purple," and more.

Actor Keith Snipes and Full Circle Dance Company perform a piece entitled "A Stone of Hope" about the MLK Memorial. Mr. Snipes narrates in the voice of Dr. King, while Full Circle Dance Company expresses through movement some of the themes of Dr. King's life and messages.

Catch the film series Black America Since MLK: And Still I Rise. Henry Louis Gates, Jr., the host of the PBS series, traverses the victories of the civil rights movement up to today, asking profound questions about the state of black America—and our nation as a whole. Using the film as a starting point, Dr. Iyelli Ichile and Dr. Tyson King-Meadows will lead an audience conversation about the state of Black America, touching on topics such as hip hop and Obama's presidency.

Participate in "End Kin Killin’ Kin: Exploring Community Solutions," an open community conversation about gang and gun violence, as Baltimore faces a record number of homicides. Participants include former gang members, and religious and nonprofit leaders. The conversation takes place inside the poignant Kin Killin' Kin exhibit on its closing day, Monday, January 16.

Young visitors can create crafts that incorporate the teachings of Dr. King.
