The Horry County Museum presents a film screening in collaboration with The Conway-Horry County Martin Luther King, Jr. Planning Committee on Saturday, May 16^th, 2026 at 1 PM. The Witness: From the Balcony of Room 306 is a documentary that recounts the final hours of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. through the eyes of Reverend Samuel “Billy” Kyles, who stood with him at the Lorraine Motel when he was assassinated in 1968. The film blends Kyles’s firsthand memories with testimonies from civil rights leaders to explain why Dr. King was in Memphis and to highlight the historical significance of that tragic moment in the civil rights movement.

The program is free to the public and will be held in the Museum’s McCown Auditorium located at 805 Main Street, Conway, SC 29526.
