Kentridge High School's Multicultural Club hosted a Martin Luther King Jr. celebration Wednesday.

Friends, parents and community members came out to see Kentridge students perform dances from throughout the world from hula to salsa.

At the end of the night, all student performers and speakers came together in the middle of the floor and danced one final piece representing unity and diversity.
