RISD MLK Series
Each academic year the RISD community works together to host a series of special events honoring the life of and contributions made by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in creating a more just and democratic society. Two thousand twenty-three marked ten years of supporting the MLK series, designing communication extensions around leading advocates for justice. The inspiring series provides members of the RISD community and the larger public with meaningful opportunities for service, reflection, and personal development.
