It’s almost that time of year. GLBTQ Legal Advocates & Defenders’ (GLAD’s) annual Spirit of Justice Award Dinner is back for the 25th year to dazzle, inspire and connect our community. The unforgettable gala unites supporters of LGBTQ+ legal rights and equality for an opportunity to find power in resistance; work toward a future of justice, love and inclusion; and support GLAD’s life-changing mission. The 2024 honorees include National Center for Lesbian Rights Legal Director Shannon Minter and GLAD’s Senior Director of Transgender & Queer Rights Jennifer Levi. The cocktail reception starts at 6 p.m., followed by dinner and the speaking program beginning at 7 p.m. and dessert and drinks at 8:30 p.m.
