Holly Spring's Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service

  • When: Monday, January 19, 2026,  9:00 am
  • Location: Hunt Recreation Center, 301 Stinson Ave, Holly Springs, NC, 27540
  • Cost: Free

In remembrance of Martin Luther King, Jr., we come together as a community through acts of service. Join us for the fifth annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service at the Hunt Recreation Center.

Join neighbors in the multipurpose room to complete a section of a giant paint-by-number mural, transforming collaboration into a piece of community art. This location holds special significance, as the Hunt Center is named in honor of W.E. Hunt, a former community leader and principal of the school for Black children that once stood on this site.

No prior painting or art experience is required—just a willingness to help and have fun. Volunteers will assist with painting sections of the mural under the guidance of Parks & Recreation staff. All supplies will be provided. Please wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty.

While the project is intended for volunteers ages 16 and up, those ages 10-15 can assist with a parent or guardian in attendance. Please register each adult volunteer separately via the website.
