King Day 2025

About the Event

Come together to honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. with a performance by the Inner City Youth Orchestra of Los Angeles, a speech listening session and discussion with the King Study Group, family activities, food trucks, and more.

This year, we’ve also added a community service book donation drive with the Los Angeles Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., supporting the Little Free Library at the Crenshaw Family YMCA. We invite you to donate new or gently used children’s books. Picture books, early readers, and chapter books are all welcome! Donations can be dropped off at the museum throughout the day-long festivities. 

11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. | King Study Group

Start the day by listening to Dr. King in his own words with the King Study Group, then participate in a group discussion about how these words relate to our lives today.

12:30 – 1:00 p.m. | Family Story Time

Join storytellers as they read inspiring and delightful children’s books about Dr. King and how to build a better world.

2:00 – 3:00 p.m. | Concert

The Inner City Youth Orchestra of Los Angeles returns to CAAM to present their crowd-favorite musical tribute to Dr. King.
