On arriving at Yerba Buena Gardens an interfaith commemoration will commemorate Dr. King. In partnership with the San Francisco Interfaith Council, this interfaith commemoration will bring together the region’s faith leaders to honor the vision of Dr. King and to lead participants in a spiritual reflection of his message.
