Barristers Big Band Benefit Ball set for April 25

The Chicago Bar Association's Barristers Big Band will hold its annual Big Band Ball on Friday, April 25, at the Union League Club, in the President's Room. This black tie optional event is a fundraiser for the CBA musical ensembles, including the CBA Symphony Orchestra and Chorus.

The CBA's small jazz ensemble, the Scales of Justice, will hold the stage between 6:00 and 7:00 p.m., during the cocktail hour. Dinner will be served, and the full 25-piece CBA Big Band, will take the stage at 7:00 p.m. Professional dance instructors will provide a demonstration and group instruction soon thereafter; dancing will continue until 10:00 p.m.

Tickets for the event are $75 each (law students, with ID, will be admitted for $50). Admission includes dinner and an open bar period. There is also a silent auction. Among the items up for auction are vacation retreats and musical performances. To purchase tickets, or to register for the silent auction, or both, click on this link.
