Martin Luther King Jr. Day events include story times, speakers and fundraising events in Milwaukee and its suburbs.

The holiday falls on the third Monday of January. A bill to make Martin Luther King Jr. Day a federal holiday was introduced on April 8, 1968 — four days after King was assassinated, according to the National Museum of African American History and Culture.

View performances, explore workshops, and hear a keynote address from King scholar, Lt. Gov. Antionio Delgado.
