There will be stamp scavenger hunts for prizes, stamp puzzles and searching in the Museum’s two-cent stamp boxes.

Children can also design their own Dr. King stamps to display in the Museum’s main gallery.

Lessons will be given on how to make unique envelopes to send letters to friends (free postage)
In addition, each family will receive a packet of stamps, a Dr. King US commemorative stamp and a booklet prepared by the U.S Post Office featuring African-Americans on stamps with their brief biographies.
