Virginia Beach Bar Foundation's 50th Celebration of Law Day May 1, 2008

Celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Law Day with the Virginia Beach Bar Foundation at its Inaugural Law Day Gala Event. President Eisenhower proclaimed the first Law Day as a "day of national dedication to the principle of government under law." Law Day, May 1, 2008, will explore the meaning of the rule of law and the fostering of public understanding of the rule of law through discussion of its role in a free society.

The 2008 Law Day Gala Event will take place at the beautiful new Sandler Center for the Performing Arts and will include a performance by the highly sought-after humanities scholar, Clay Jenkinson. Appearing in the persona of Thomas Jefferson, Mr. Jenkinson will explore the third president's views about the rule of law and its importance in protecting our freedom and individual liberties. After his presentation, Mr. Jenkinson will answer questions from the audience both in and out of character.
