Details

Each year, the Museum commemorates the tragic event that occurred on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel in 1968. This year’s hybrid event features a keynote speaker, special performances, fraternal tribute, and changing the balcony wreath with a moment of silence at 6:01 pm Central when Dr. King was slain. Guests are welcome to attend the free commemoration in the museum courtyard, weather permitting. Commemoration will be held inside the museum in the event of rain.
