    “381 Days: The Montgomery Bus Boycott Story,” a four-year traveling exhibit, commemorates the 50th anniversary of Rosa Parks’ arrest and the bus boycott that followed. It presents an account of American bravery, honor, and idealism. One unyielding individual stood against the power of racism, sparking fifty thousand people of color to force a segregated bus system to open its doors to equality, igniting America’s civil rights era. The exhibition is a multidimensional collage of photographs, quotes and historical texts that bring this story to life and convey the dynamic energy of the movement. “381 Days” is dedicated to the indelible spirit and memory of Mrs. Parks (1913-2005)

      Known around the world for its blues and rock and roll, Memphis has a recognizable special vibe. ArtsMemphis exists to nurture this unique character and to magnify the city’s creative voice. We are a 45-year-old arts funding organization (the sixth largest in the United States), which provides annual operating and project support to 23 arts groups and administers some 150 additional grants on a year to year basis. The ArtsMemphis tagline is “your support matters” and indeed it does. As major fundraisers, grant-makers and arts promoters in the city, ArtsMemphis contributed more than $4 million to the Memphis arts community in 2007, and it is a fact that 95 cents of every dollar raised in our annual campaign is directed to our funded organizations. ArtsMemphis builds partnerships among artists, arts groups, donors, educators and culture lovers throughout the city and region. Recognizing that a lively arts scene has a major economic impact and is essential to the quality of life in Memphis, ArtsMemphis is encouraging the entire community to interact with the arts like never before. The current enhanced website with its expanded calendar of events has been introduced with that goal in mind.
