Free Wine and Cheese!



Okay, now that I've got your attention, keep reading below for details regarding LLLer Dahlia Lithwick's gig at the TJ Center this Friday. (They ask you to reserve so they can have sufficient wine and cheese on hand. You know I'll be there!)

If you've never been to an event at the Thomas Jefferson Center for the Protection of Free Expression, you're missing out. The Center, along with the Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection, is housed in a lovely old mansion. The open house is traditionally held in the spacious back yard with a view that unfurls all the way to the Blue Ridge. You'll find smart people (who are passionate about the Constitution), stimulating talk, art like you may never have seen, plus those tasty refreshments!

Dahlia Lithwick, senior editor at Slate.com, contributing writer to Newsweek, and legal commentator for NPR’s Day to Day, will be speaking at the annual Open House / Reception of The Thomas Jefferson Center for the Protection of Free Expression and The Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection. In 2001, Lithwick received the Online News Association’s award for online commentary and last year was recognized by a Legal Affairs magazine poll as one of the top 20 legal thinkers in America.

The event is free and open to the public, but reservations are required. To reserve your place, please contact the Thomas Jefferson Center at 434-295-4784.
