Join the Yale Peabody Museum, CT Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, and the New Haven Museum for the 28th Annual Celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s Legacy of Social and Environmental Justice with two days of free events open to all. Generously sponsored by Citizens.

Those talented artists will be followed by a dazzling line-up of over a dozen renowned competition poets, including Ray Jane, Lyrical Faith, Tymani Rain, T'challa Williams, and last year's winner Slangston Hughes.
Held in honor of New Haven arts leader Zannette Lewis, this event is appropriate for adults and young adults with discretion of a parent or guardian. Reception to follow with complimentary snacks and beverages. Space is limited--free registration is strongly recommended.
