As the festive shimmer of the holidays fades, Charlotte prepares to illuminate the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. with a week of commemorative events. The City of Charlotte and its partners are working to keep the spirit of community engagement alive by offering an array of activities starting next Monday and culminating on MLK Day, January 19th.
