Kicking off this fall at the Vilna is our new Lifesavers Speaker Series.

Made possible with a generous gift from Jason Weiner and Nicole Zatlyn, this ongoing series invites the community inside our building to hear fascinating stories from people saving lives every day.

Starting off on Monday evening, October 19th at 7pm, our first installment features the Innocence Project.

Both Attorney Aliza Kaplan, Associate Professor at Lewis & Clark Law School and a co-founder of the Oregon Innocence Project and Dennis Maher, Innocence Project Board Member and exoneree, will share their story of working to free Dennis from nearly 20 years of wrongful imprisonment.

 

Please use the registration form in the sidebar on the right in order to register.

RSVPs are strongly encouraged as we may not be able to accomodate walk-ins.
