JLD Scholarship program to offer free crafts and cocoa popup on Jan. 20th
The Johnny Leroy Dawkins program organizers have a special treat in store for the January 20th, 2025, Holiday from 2 pm to 4 pm. Directly following the MLK day parade in Lexington, the scholarship and community program will host an "I Have a Dream" Crafts & Cocoa Popup located at the Rescue Squad at 115 W 9th Ave. in Lexington.
This vibrant and heartwarming community celebration will honor the lasting legacy of Dr. King, inviting families and individuals of all ages to come together for an inspiring afternoon.
“In the spirit of Dr. King’s vision, we believe that even small moments of connection - like sharing cocoa and crafting together - can help build bridges in our community. Our event aims to bring people of all ages together, creating a space where joy, creativity, and cultural appreciation can flourish,” said Dia Nyarko Co-Founder & Executive Director JLD Community Solutions
