Barristers’ Ball hosted by Wolverine Bar

The Wolverine Bar Association and the Wolverine Bar Foundation hosted the 62nd Annual Barristers’ Ball on Saturday, April 20, in the Detroit Marriott Renaissance Center Ballroom.  

Every year, more than 1,500 leaders from the legal, business, education, civic and political communities attend the Barristers’ Ball to celebrate the best of the Southeastern Michigan Community.
In partnership with Motown Museum, this year’s theme was “Motown, Back Down Memory Lane” which celebrated and restored, for one night, that fabled entertainment and business district of old Detroit.

Proceeds from the annual Barristers’ Ball support the Wolverine Bar Association’s and Wolverine Bar Foundation’s student externships, internships, scholarships, education courses, and
mentoring; as well as, legal information, and representation for the underrepresented.
