The Martin Luther King Day Committee welcomes everyone to join the Northern Berkshire community as they celebrate the life, principles, and ideals of the Rev.

Participate by providing service to the community at more than ten sites including: Louison House, North Adams Skating Rink, YMCA, local churches, weatherization for homes, food collection sites, and projects onsite at the MCLA Church Street Center. After morning service projects, all participants are invited to return to MCLA Church Street Center at 12:30 for a free luncheon and community celebration of the day of service in honor of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., while enjoying local entertainment and hearing uplifting words tying our efforts to Martin Luther King, Jr. The annual Peacemaker Award presentation to Al and Cindi McLain will be made during the lunchtime celebration.
