Martin Luther King Day: What's Open, What's Closed

A look at what is open and closed around Middletown today

 

Martin Luther King Jr. Day is a federal holiday, which means most federal, state and local government offices–with the exception of essential services—will be closed. Businesses differ, so when in doubt, call ahead. Patch's business directory is one easy way to quickly look up phone numbers.

Also today is the 57th Presidential Inauguration. The Jane Pickens Theater is hosting a free community event at 11:00 a.m. to view the event live on a large screen. For more information, click here.
