Law Week Lookahead: June 2023

In June, Colorado’s legal community has plenty of get-togethers, CLE courses and more planned. 

Celebrate Pride Month with the Colorado LGBT Bar Association which plans to march in the Denver Pride Parade. Or, join the Center for Legal Inclusiveness for a tea-time discussion about how LGBTQ+ visibility is impacting the legal profession. 


A number of organizations also have events planned for young attorneys and summer associates. Join the Colorado Bar Association and Denver Bar Association’s Young Lawyers Divisions for happy hours, hikes and volunteer opportunities. Or, join CLI for Young Lawyers Appreciation week with professional resources, places to connect with other young lawyers and more. 

Events may change. Check with organizers for the most current information about an event.
