The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience,
but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
-Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
We celebrate his legacy with art-inspired experiences centered around his nonviolent philosophy.
Visiting artist G.M. Webb will lead visitors in the creation of an uplifting community art project, "Faces of a Dream" inspired by the dream of Rev. Dr. King, Jr. Meet the artist, learn about his process, and work to create a unique collaborative art project.
Visiting Baltimore artist Gary Webb will guide visitors through the creation of a community art project titled, “Faces of a Dream.” Inspired by the art of Mr. Webb, the project invites guests of all ages to create a wire mask using using the artist’s “webbing technique” of twisting and bending different kinds of wire into a self-portrait mask. Each wire portrait will be added to an ever growing wall of faces, celebrating the diversity and beauty of our community. Materials appropriate for different ages and abilities will be available.
