PHOENIXES RISING |
OWLS Queen’s Bench Chapter
|
Each calendar year, the Queen’s Bench monthly CLEs and events focus on a different theme. In 2021, the theme of Queen’s Bench lunchtime CLE series is “Phoenixes Rising.” At our monthly, free CLEs open to all, you will hear touching stories from women-identified professionals (including but not limited to lawyers) who have overcome extraordinary challenges to become leaders in our state. We hope their stories will inspire you to view 2020’s difficulties as springboards for your future professional successes. Queen’s Bench CLEs are simulcast on Zoom and FacebookLive the second Tuesday of the month from noon until 1 PM.We look forward to the day it is safe to gather together in person again and share a meal as we used to do, at a new venue: the new Multnomah County Courthouse.
