Join Us for Power to Inspire 2026!
Power to Inspire, the Center’s annual gala, will be held in our newly renovated building—allowing guests to experience the power of our mission in the space where history and inspiration converge.
This year’s event will bring together civic, corporate, and community leaders for an unforgettable evening that recognizes individuals whose courage, leadership, and commitment advance civil and human rights.
Support for Power to Inspire is crucial to our work: providing dynamic and empathy-building experiences that connect history to the present, generating brave conversations about timely events, and inspiring individuals to tap their own power to influence the world around them.
