Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration in Bangor, Maine

Singer/songwriter Reggie Harris will be the featured performer at the Martin Luther King Day celebration at 3 p.m. on January 18, 2026 at the First Methodist Church in Bangor, Maine.

Reggie is an inspiring performer who shares insightful perspectives on life, history, education and human rights issues. His musical show is appropriate for all ages. And always promises some rousing sing-alongs!

The gathering will also feature several AWTT portraits, chosen by Reggie. AWTT artist Robert Shetterly will attend.

On Friday evening, Rabbi Danny Zemel and Liz Lerman will lead Shabbat service with musical accompaniment by David Halvorson (bass) and David Simonds (clarinet).

On Saturday, explore movement and prayer as art forms that support one another through an experiential workshop followed by a light lunch and moderated discussion with our distinguished
guests. Aaron Emery (percussion) will join our two Davids in providing musical accompaniment. No experience is required to participate in the workshop, and individuals across all faith
backgrounds are welcome.

Rabbi Danny Zemel led the congregation at Temple Micah in Washington, DC for over 40 years before retiring in June 2025. His 20-year involvement with Synagogue 2000 (a project focused on
the transformation of American synagogues) was instrumental in shaping his vision of synagogue life and the role of rabbi. He feels his primary role as rabbi is grappling with the challenge of “translating” the inherited Jewish past into a theology and practice that speak to today.

Liz Lerman is a choreographer, writer, educator, and recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship and a MacArthur “Genius Grant.” She has been a long-time member of Temple Micah in Washington, D.C., where she has collaborated with the congregation and its rabbis; and she was a part of Synagogue 2000, where she introduced dance for congregational life to many in the United States. Over several years, she ran a program called Moving Jewish Communities, and she has also led communities of diverse faiths in suspending their differences to praise humanity’s shared creative beauty.

Their visit is made possible by generous support from the JCEA.
