Each year Law Day events and programs are planned and carried out by bar associations, courts, and various educational entities. The American Bar Association selects a theme each year for Law Day events. This year's theme: 'Realizing the Dream: Equality for All' marks the 150th anniversary of the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation.
