5. INTRODUCTION:

Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historical Park (MALU) has a project in place to rehabilitate the Visitor Center in early 2025 to update systems, ensure structural stability, and perform maintenance on many of the architectural features. In order to continue operations and provide a positive experience to the visitor, a temporary exhibit will need to be created in a designated location at the park to provide opportunities for guests to learn about and engage with the history of Dr.

King’s life and tragic ending, the history of the Sweet Auburn community in which he grew up in, worshipped in, and worked in, and the history of Ebenezer Baptist

Church and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference—two institutions Dr.

King was deeply tied to as a vehicle for justice for all. The exhibit will need to be a pop-up style to make it easily removable or relocatable after the park Visitor Center opens back up so that the exhibits can be re-used in whole or in portion(s) at other locations throughout the park and the space for the exhibit will be limited with a theatre portion close—sound bleed will be an issue.

6. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION:

MALU was established on October 10, 1980, by Public Law 96-428 (PL 96-428).

The park is located in Atlanta, Georgia and its mission is to protect and interpret for the benefit, inspiration, and education of present and future generations the places where Martin Luther King, Jr. was born, where he lived, worked, worshipped, and where he is buried. To maintain park operations and afford visitors with the chance to learn the history of Dr. King’s personal life, academic life, career, and involvement with the Civil Rights Movement, the National Park Service is requiring planning, design, and fabrication of pop-up exhibits at historic Fire Station No. 6.

Currently, visitors encounter exhibits at historic Fire Station No. 6 detailing the history of the neighborhood, racial relations in the South, and the integration of fire stations in Atlanta, Georgia. The new pop-up exhibits will showcase the mission of MALU, and visitors will experience the history of a legendary Civil Rights leader, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The pop-up exhibits will be removable— temporary in nature—so that it can be used in whole or in portion(s) at various locations throughout the park, for easier accessibility for cleaning the large original 1927 fire truck that will stay in place, and to not make permanent changes to the historic fabric of the building. There is limited space in the historic Fire Station so it will be a smaller, condensed pop-up exhibit.

The successful completion of this project will mean that by the end of first quarter of 2025, new pop-up exhibits related to the interpretation of the places where Dr.

King was born, lived, worked, worshipped, and is buried will be planned, designed, and fabricated for the placement at historic Fire Station No. 6.
