Annual Barristers' Ball hosted April 29

The Wolverine Bar Association and the Wolverine Bar Foundation are excited to host the 61st Annual Barristers' Ball on Saturday, April 29, from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. in the Detroit Marriott Renaissance Center Ballroom.

The Barristers' Ball is the Wolverine Bar's signature black-tie charity fundraising gala. It includes a strolling dinner buffet and musical entertainment, and is attended by more than 1,500 supporters each year. This year's theme is "Paradise Valley," which celebrates and restores, for one night, that fabled entertainment and business district of old Detroit.

Attendance and sponsorship of the Barristers' Ball funds the Wolverine Bar's programs and services, which include student externships, internships, scholarships, education courses, and mentoring; as well as, legal information, education, and representation for the underrepresented.

Individual tickets for the ball cost $150. For tickets or additional information about the ball, visit www.wolverinebar.org.
