The Eve of Justice: Lighting the way for the Supreme Court is an opportunity to inspire hope, and change hearts and minds the night before oral arguments on Prop 8's validity begin.
This event will open at 5:30 pm, March 4th on picturesque Olvera Street in downtown Los Angeles.
As Californians, families and friends will gather to express that equal marriage rights are vital to our lives and community. It is wrong to take away basic rights from a minority group at the ballot box.
Highlights of the event include wonderful LIVE MUSIC, Los Angeles MAYOR ANTONIO VILLARAIGOSA, and a CANDLELIT MARCH to the LA offices of the California Supreme Court. There will also be a re-commitment ceremony of married couples by Civic Leaders. Between musical acts we will hear personal stories and a diversity of faith leaders. As dusk turns into night, we will join together in candlelit demonstration to portray that united, we stand in solidarity for equality under the law.
Please note that while flame-lit candles will be sold at the event, we recommend you bring your own battery-powered candle. Otherwise, feel free to bring your own with a catch fashioned from a cup for safety. We recommend Dixie.
