Presented by the Capital City Lawyers Association (CCLA)

Step into a world of elegance, celebration, and community at the Black Lawyers Ball 2025 — an annual signature event hosted by the Capital City Lawyers Association.

Why Attend:
The Black Lawyers Ball is more than an elegant night out — it is a celebration of excellence, resilience, and service in the legal profession. It also serves as a major fundraising event for CCLA’s scholarship fund, which provides vital financial support to law students committed to using their legal careers to serve underrepresented communities.

Attire:
Formal attire encouraged — embrace the theme with winter whites, silvers, icy blues, and glamorous accents.

Who Should Attend:
This event is open to the entire legal community and beyond — attorneys, judges, law students, business professionals, civic leaders, and all those who believe in the power of representation, education, and community uplift.

Support the Mission:
All proceeds from the Black Lawyers Ball support CCLA’s year-round programming and scholarship fund. By attending, you help us continue our mission to improve the quality of life for the local citizenry, particularly in underrepresented communities, through service, scholarship, and education.

Join us for a night to remember as we celebrate progress, purpose, and the bright future ahead — all under a shimmering Winter Wonderland.
