Celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

11:00 AM - 3:00 PM

Ages 5 - 11

Storytellers and actors Valerie Tutson and Rochel Coleman return to the Museum with their powerful performance “M.L.K.: Amazing Grace” at 11:30 AM, 1:00 PM and 2:30 PM. The Civil Rights Movement comes to life through songs and stories as the performers portray activists Rosa Parks, Ralph Abernathy and more. Families also explore an exhibit of photographs, words and books describing Dr. King’s life and work and take part in a thought-provoking anti-discrimination activity.

Space is limited for performances of “M.L.K.: Amazing Grace." Sponsored in part by Serve Rhode Island and Herman H. Rose.
