In celebration of its 10th Anniversary year, The Memorial Foundation, builders of the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial announced today the appointment of three Co-Chairs for its 10th Anniversary events: music icon Lionel Richie, Silicon Valley leader Shellye Archambeau and lifestyle and fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger.
The Memorial’s summer film series is part of the Foundation’s 10th Anniversary Year Celebration. For the first time, Films at the Stone, co-sponsored by MPAA, will include a Disney film with particular appeal to family audiences as well as two major films that may inspire attendees to live out the values of democracy, justice, hope, and love advocated by Dr. King and TMF.
The Memorial Foundation will host a virtual candlelight vigil and wreath-laying ceremony on the National Mall to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The program will feature the renowned choir of Morgan State University and an intimate conversation with Rev. Jesse Jackson and journalist Roland Martin on Dr. King’s legacy.
