For many people, 2017 will be a year of living their values and standing up for what they believe. And what better way to do it than celebrating the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at the 29th All Peoples Celebration, which will take place on Monday, January 16, at the Balboa Park Activity Center.

While staying true to your values is one reason to join us, there are many more. The All Peoples Celebration features nationally recognized speakers, top local artists and musicians, and is an opportunity to celebrate everything that Dr. King stood for.
