California University of Pennsylvania will honor the memory of civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. with a free presentation of “King’s Dream” at 11 a.m. Jan. 19 in the Natali Student Center.

The multimedia performance blends historical film footage with live narratives, music and songs to relive key events in King’s life and explore the roots of the civil rights movement and the social unrest of the 1960s.

Admission is free, and visitor parking is available in the Vulcan Garage, off Third Street near the campus entrance, or in Lot 17 behind the student center.

In addition, students will participate in the annual Day of Service Feb. 3. Inspiration for the event was provided during a visit to Cal U. in 2003 by the late Coretta Scott King, who asked that the day commemorating her husband be observed as “a day on, rather than a day off.”

Students will complete a variety of craft projects for local organizations, and a blood drive will be held in conjunction with the event.
