Event Description

Join University of Michigan to celebrate the life & legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Join the University of Michigan’s Marsal Family School of Education’s Martin Luther King Jr. Children and Youth Program! This incredible event will be held in the University of Michigan’s School of Education Building at 610 East University Avenue, Ann Arbor, MI, USA. It’s a fantastic opportunity for children and youth in grades Pre-Kindergarten-12 to learn, engage, and celebrate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. through fun and educational activities.

Throughout these memorable years, these activities have been filled with fun, creativity, dialogue, and entertainment and included storytelling, guided discussions and group projects, skits, rap poetry, and various musical performances. The program is facilitated by capable adults, many of whom are professional educators, youth workers, or students in the Marsal Family School of Education at the University of Michigan who have experience working with children or who are preparing to become teachers.

Please note: A parent or guardian must attend with their pre-kindergarteners.

Lunch (Cheese Pizza from Dominos, bottled water, and nut-free snacks) are provided. Please contact them with dietary restrictions – they can provide gluten free and/or dairy free pizza if notified by 1/13)
