Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration Committee (MLKCC) is sponsoring a two-week exhibit of the Say Their Names Memorial at The Center for the Arts & Sciences. The traveling memorial is part of a nationwide initiative to honor Black lives taken by systemic racism and racial injustice. The outdoor exhibit is available to visitors from Friday, February 26 through Saturday, March 13. Visiting hours are 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
This Say Their Names Memorial is part of a set of traveling memorials that have been displayed in more than 25 locations nationwide including Houston, Dallas, Rockwall and Austin. The aim of the Say Their Names Memorial is to facilitate conversation around systemic racism while honoring those whose lives have been taken by it.
Thank you to The Facts for covering the exhibit and the ribbon cutting on Friday, February 26.
