LBJ Library civil rights summit tickets sold out
Tickets available to the public for the LBJ Library’s summit on Lyndon B. Johnson’s civil rights legacy were gone 19 minutes after they became available Monday morning.
The summit, to be held April 8-10, will include appearances by President Barack Obama and three former presidents, as well as other dignitaries, activists, politicians, historians and musicians.
A library spokeswoman said a portion of the available seats were reserved for the University of Texas community, which used a lottery to award available slots. She could not say how many seats were made available to the public Monday.
All of the summit events will be live-streamed. For more on streaming go to civilrightssummit.org/updates/#live.
