The bus stops feature a multi-media display and presentation. The history exhibit features photography by Tom Olin, a social documentarian whose work has been exhibited at the Smithsonian. The exhibit guides the viewers through the civil rights struggle for people with disabilities, culminating in the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act more than 15 years ago.

Jim Ward, President of ADA Watch and the National Coalition for Disability Rights, will make a presentation about the ADA, the challenges still faced by people with disabilities, and the need to keep the promise of the ADA.

Local leaders and disability advocates who have worked to coordinate the bus stop may also choose to make presentations.
