Description

The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. used the Greek term agape to describe a universal love that "...discovers the neighbor in every man it meets."  During MLK Holiday Weekend, January 13 - 16, the Harvey B. Gantt Center will celebrate the legacy of Dr. King by opening three exhibitions--including the powerful installation Cash Crop -- and by providing exciting workshops, films, and presentations that support tolerance and respect in our communities.  It is only through acceptance and appreciation of the rich diversity of our world's cultures and forms of expression that we can begin to recognize harmony in difference.  Event details for Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday are on our website.
