MLK Day of Celebration

The Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Commission of Mid-Michigan presents the 40th annual Day of Celebration, the nation’s largest MLK Day luncheon, honoring Dr. King’s legacy of equality, justice, and hope. As the longest-running MLK commission, the organization has spent decades uniting communities to uphold his vision. This year’s event features keynote speaker Dr. Bernard LaFayette Jr., a trailblazer in the Civil Rights Movement, co-founder of SNCC, and a key figure in campaigns like the Freedom Rides and Selma Voting Rights Movement. Join us for an inspiring tribute to Dr. King’s legacy and the power of community.
