SOCIAL & PROFESSIONAL EVENTS

Get Ready for Our Annual Gala

Mark your calendars for Thursday June 12, 2025 from 7PM-10PM. This year we will be at the New England Aquarium for a Wicked good time. We will have full access to the aquarium's exhibits, enjoy a keynote speech from Democracy Forward's Sunu Chandy, honor community members and law students, indulge in food and drink, and bask in the glow of some fantastic drag performers.  

Our award winners are: Matthew McTygue, Elyse Cherry, Tre'Andre Valentine, and Bill Keating. Our Law Student Chapter of the Year is Northeastern University School of Law. 

This event is SOLD OUT and FULLY sponsored! Sponsorships help us throw the event and help us to grow the law student scholarship fund. Thank you to everyone supporting our event and helping us to grow our scholarship fund.

If you would like to donate to our scholarship fund individually you can do so here. Our scholarship recipients from past years are serving the queer and other marginalized communities in their professional careers. Supporting our students has undoubtedly strengthened communities across the Commonwealth and the country.
