Gallery Conversation: Letter from Birmingham Jail

Opening Monday, January 15th, from 2PM - 3PM
Meet in Griffin Court
Join us in the galleries to recognize Martin Luther King, Jr. Day by revisiting his monumental “Letter from Birmingham Jail.” Using Dr. King’s words as a guide to interpret artworks in the collection, we will explore the many meanings of justice, resistance, and faith.
If you’d like, you can prepare for the conversation by reading (or re-reading) King’s “Letter from Birmingham Jail.”
