The travelling exhibit, Lonnie C. King, Jr., The Life and Legacy of a Civil Rights Leader, will be on display at Flat Shoals Library from November 17 to December 19, 2025.

This free exhibition offers community members a look into the life and work of Lonnie C. King Jr., an influential figure in the Civil Rights Movement, and best known for his work with the Atlanta Student Movement in the 1960s. The exhibition, curated from Lonnie C. King, Jr.'s personal papers and historical documents, highlights his incredible journey and legacy. It was created through a collaboration between Georgia State University Library’s Special Collection and Archives and the Georgia State Honors College. Additional support was provided by The Rich’s Foundation and Georgia Humanities in partnership with Georgia Public Library Service and the Georgia Department of Economic Development, and through appropriations made by the Georgia General Assembly.
