King for a Day: A Day of Action and Advocacy

Saturday 1/31/26 | 8:30am-1pm

Each year local Rochester colleges and universities come together with local organizations to honor the life and work of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and contributors to the civil rights movement through a day of advocacy and action. 

Open to everyone. Transportation is provided. This event is a way to celebrate community, build relationships, and support a worthy cause through acts of advocacy and service.

This year we will convene at the Edgerton Stardust Ballroom for a community-building kickoff event featuring speakers and performances from local leaders, including college students from around the area.

You must preregister to participate.

We will meet at the Shults Center Information Desk on January 31st at 8:30 a.m. for departure.
