An unlikely group of musicians — lawyers and doctors — will make music together in a special concert. The Los Angeles Lawyers Philharmonic & Legal Voices under the baton of Founder-Condutor Gary S. Greene, Esq., and the Los Angeles Doctors Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Music Director Ivan Shulman, MD, MM, will join together in harmony. They will perform a wide variety of music featuring The Lion King, “Waltz of the Flowers” from Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Suite, the “Hallelujah Chorus” from Handel’s Messiah, Babes in Toyland, Christmas and Hanukkah favorites and much more.

The Wake County Bar Association Lawyers Support Committee is pleased to offer a new opportunity for lawyers who are interested in applying the research and principles of Dr. Brené Brown to the practice of law. This monthly group discussion will be facilitated by lawyer and clinical social worker Alisa Huffman in a confidential, inclusive and supportive environment, enabling participants to connect to other lawyers and build community within the bar.

The discussions will be held the second Tuesday of each month at 7:30 a.m. at 311 S. Academy Street in Cary.

The MWL Book Club offers a casual and fun opportunity to meet other MWL members and discuss a book of common interest to the group. Gatherings are held on the second Tuesday every other month from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Salut Bar Americain in St. Paul. The group enjoys dinner together (payment on your own) and then spends an hour discussing the book selection for the month. RSVP’s are requested ahead of time to get an accurate reservation count at the restaurant.

This month the group will be discussing: Circe by Madeline Miller.
