West Hartford Celebrates the Life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

  • West Hartford Town Hall Auditorium 50 South Main Street West Hartford, CT, 06107 United States (map)

Every year since 1997 the city of West Hartford, CT has commemorated Dr. Martin Luther King in a ceremony held at the West Hartford Town Hall auditorium at 50 South Main Street. These commemorations draw as many as 400 people and include student speakers, music, and a keynote speaker. This coming year, that ceremony will be held on January 20th, 2025 from 10:30 to Noon.

The theme this year is around Dr. King's 1957 quote:

“If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.”

John Mills will be the keynote speaker.
