We are delighted to share that the ACLU of Maine will host the Scolnik Award Reception on November 12, 2025. This signature event honors the legacy of Louis Scolnik, a justice on the Maine Supreme Judicial Court, and the co-founder and first president of the ACLU of Maine. Justice Scolnik dedicated his life to the pursuit of fairness and equality under the law, and this event continues his vision by celebrating those who carry that work forward today. The Scolnik Award Reception brings together community leaders, advocates, and supporters from across Maine who share a deep commitment to justice. Join us to honor Justice Scolnik’s enduring legacy and ensure the ACLU of Maine can continue its vital work in the courts, at the State House, and in communities. In these times, it is so important that we gather to celebrate and recognize the amazing work being done throughout the state. Come enjoy cocktails and appetizers, and connect with others who care about civil rights and civil liberties in Maine!
