This year’s gala will feature Guest Speaker Lillian Cunningham, Washington Post journalist and creator and host of the Post’s “Constitutional” Podcast.

As the Guest Speaker for this year’s gala, Ms. Cunningham will explore the United States Constitution and “the people who framed and reframed it — revolutionaries, abolitionists, suffragists, teetotalers, protesters, justices, presidents – in the ongoing struggle to form a more perfect Union across a vast and diverse land” in her keynote remarks.
