A Day of Action

Sunday, Jan. 26, 1 – 4 p.m.

Kogod Courtyard

Activate and uplift! Get inspired and find your voice! Art is activism and portraiture is powerful. Honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his commitment to community action by joining the Portrait Gallery and our partners for A Day of Action.

Geared toward mobilizing teens and young adults, but open to all, this event featuring local social justice organizations and community groups will empower visitors. Learn from changemakers who are doing the work and be inspired by the activists highlighted in some of the Portrait Gallery’s exhibitions, “The Struggle for Justice,” “Brilliant Exiles: American Women in Paris, 1900–1939,” “Felix Gonzalez-Torres: Always to Return” and “This Morning, This Evening, So Soon: James Baldwin and the Voices of Queer Resistance.” Free – Registration Encouraged.
