The Center marks National Teachers Day with an afternoon for educators, framed by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s argument that education should produce both intelligence and character.

The program mixes gallery exploration with recognition of classroom teachers, and follows the Center's earlier professional learning workshop in September.

Noon to 5 p.m.
