MLK Day

Over at Project YES! in Chicago we are deep into our planning for the MLK Day of service. We are working on a project titled "Recreating the dream through Art and Action" we will be bringing together students from the city and suburbs to paint mosaic murals depicting different civil rights themes. The day will also include education on MLK and the civil rights movement as well as a "march" to commemorate MLK's march from Soldier Field to City Hall in Chicago. Feel free to post what your programs are doing for MLK Day. I think it would be cool for our next project to put together a newsletter of the different projects that programs ran across the state.
