Looking to celebrate Martin Luther King Day with your community – look no further than the 12th annual Martin Luther King Jr Unity Celebration at the University of Toledo. On Martin Luther King Day, the University will team up with the City of Toledo to create an all-day celebration in Savage Arena based on the life and legacy of Dr. King.

Joining him are performances by the Toledo Youth Choir, the Interfaith Mass Choir and the community winner of the University talent show, as well as the presentation of the Martin Luther King Scholarship to a number of deserving college students. Attendees are encouraged to bring can goods for the Martin Luther King Jr Kitchen for the Poor food drive and to stay after the event for the community luncheon. Free. 9am. 2801 Bancroft W.
