Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh will host a variety of programs in observance of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday. In this one-man performance, actor Gregory Gibson Kenney dreams that he meets Dr. King at the Lincoln Memorial. Dr. King shares four speeches, how he wished to be remembered, and how fear is no longer a factor in his survival. This historical presentation will intimately involve the audience in the life of Dr. King. Audiences of all ages are invited to participate in the birthday celebrations and read aloud programs hosted at branch libraries.
All programs are free and open to the public.
In addition, five branch libraries will hold outreach programs at local schools. Parking is available for the Main Library in the Carnegie Garage at Forbes Avenue and S. Craig Street. Registration is suggested for all programs. This sumptuous repast features hors d'oeuvres from popular South Side restaurants, caterers and Friends. This year's event will feature live music and promises to be a sell-out yet again.
