CONNECT THE DOT:
BGCD Artwork Featured at Museum of Fine Arts on Martin Luther King Junior Day: Museum goers had the opportunity to celebrate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. by surrounding themelves with art, culture, and community on Monday. A few lucky BGCD members had their artwork on display as part of this exhibit honoring the life of Dr. King.
Patrons enjoyed free admission all day long and an array of vibrant, engaging, and collaborative programs for all ages and abilities, presented in the spirit of Dr. King.
Citizens Bank has sponsored the MFA’s MLK Day Open House for 17 consecutive years—allowing the Museum to welcome visitors into their galleries to enjoy free performances, tours, talks, art-making activities, and more. For more information on our art programs please contact Art Director, Katy Farrar at kfarrar@bgcdorchester.org.
