JPMorgan Chase & Co. is bringing its exhibition booth celebrating the King Center Imaging Project to the 黑料不打烊 campus on Monday, Sept. 30, and Tuesday, Oct. 1.

The booth, which showcases digital images of key documents from Martin Luther King, Jr.鈥檚 correspondence, speeches and sermons, will be on display in the Panasci Lounge in the Hildegarde and J. Myer Schine Student Center until 9 p.m. on Monday, and 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Tuesday. Those viewing the exhibition will also be invited to write their dreams on a 鈥淢y Dream Is鈥 card and post it on an illuminated 鈥淒ream Wall鈥 within the exhibition.

A reception will begin at 10 a.m. Monday in the lounge鈥檚 Menschel Gallery, followed by a ribbon cutting ceremony at 11:15 a.m. Those planning to attend the reception are asked to R.S.V.P. to jpmcsu.collaboration@jpmchase.com. The SU exhibition is a stop on a nationwide tour.

JPMorgan Chase and the King Center formally launched the King Center Imaging Project, an effort to digitize documents from King and other key figures and organizations from the Civil Rights Movement, on Jan. 16, 2012, Martin Luther King Day.

The collaborative effort between the King Center and JPMorgan Chase has helped make these key documents from the Civil Rights Movement available to new generations of people across the globe. Previously, the documents had been available solely to scholars who visited Atlanta. The imaging project provides opportunities for anyone, anywhere to learn about King in a more in-depth and personal way.

鈥淚t鈥檚 important for JPMorgan Chase to support Dr. King鈥檚 legacy because of the important values he committed his life to promoting, such as equality, equal opportunity and quality education for all,鈥 says Jamie Dimon, chairman and CEO of JPMorgan Chase & Co. 鈥淧eople like Dr. Martin Luther King are what made America what it is today. The values he espoused are the values that JPMorgan Chase also tries to stand for around the world.鈥

A team of more than 300鈥搃ncluding veterans and students at Spelman and Morehouse colleges鈥揹igitized about 200,000 documents associated with King, including his 鈥淚 Have a Dream鈥 speech, the 鈥淟etter from a Birmingham Jail鈥 and King鈥檚 1964 Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech. The project archive can be accessed at .

鈥淭hrough an unprecedented digital image project undertaken by our collaborator, JPMorgan Chase, we are extremely excited to be hosting such an outstanding piece of work that shows the importance and impact of Dr. King鈥檚 legacy on our country,鈥 says Gina Lee-Glauser, SU鈥檚 vice president for research.
