MLK DAY AT MOT

 

Join us at the Museum of Tolerance to celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.! We have a full schedule of all day activities for families.

  • Take the EXPLORER CHALLENGE through MOT exhibits to learn more about MLK's legacy and the history of the Civil Rights Movement

  • Art Activities such as the MLK BOARD GAME: Where families can work together to create a board game to take home that illustrates MLK's setbacks and achievements in his fight for freedom, and, MAKING A DIFFERENCE: Link your action to those of others to illustrate how far small acts combined together can go towards changing the world.

  • Film screening MIGHTY TIMES: THE CHILDREN'S MARCH tells the story of how the young people of Birmingham, Alabama braved fire hoses and police dogs in 1963 and brought segregation to its knees.

  • Film screening MIGHTY TIMES: THE LEGACY OF ROSA PARKS tells the story of the Montogomery bus boycott, and how an act of defiance inspired a community to unite in its opposition to segregation and change America.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have A Dream" speech will be availible all day in the Viewing Room as well.  The MOT looks forward to hosting all museum guests for a day filled with celebration and service.
