The contest is open to all ages with one winner per age category. Winners will receive a $50 gift card or a donation to a non-profit charity of their choice. Entries may be submitted online at SafetyHarborLibrary.com or in person at the library.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. sought equality and human rights for black Americans, the poor, and all victims of injustice through peaceful protest. He was the driving force behind major historical events that lead to the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964 and is remembered each year on Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
