A Celebration of Law Day – Norman Rockwell & the Bar: The Cornerstone of Democracy, Civics, Civility, Collaboration
Join us for a SPECIAL PROGRAM in honor of Law Day, a tribute to Norman Rockwell as a chronicler of life in the United States, since his pictures tell stories that reflect a pride in the U.S., and a firm belief in its democratic heritage.
While some may have dismissed him as naive, his total body of work depicts civility and fostering a collaborative spirit – especially in troubling times.
His work portrays our yesterdays, and with a little effort we can see today and perhaps even again discover a path which might point to a better tomorrow.
