Judicial Portrait Project
The Philadelphia LGBTQ Bar Association established the Judicial Portrait Project to honor the LGBTQ legal leaders who came before us and paved the way for out LGBTQ attorneys.
Through these funds, the finished portraits are to recognize openly LGBTQ judges in Philadelphia who have recently retired from the bench. Each portrait is donated to the First Judicial District for public display in various courtrooms throughout City Hall.
This year, we’re raising funds to Judge NAME of the COURT
Please note that there are no Court or other public funds for judicial portraits. As such, the Association is requesting your support for this important project. All donations to the Judicial Portrait Project are tax deductible through the Philadelphia LGBTQ+ Bar Association.
*Please note that contributions to the Judicial Portrait Project will not be disclosed to anyone other than the Judicial Portrait Committee and Judge NAME was involved in any way with the solicitation of contributions for the Judicial Portrait Project. This solicitation is solely made by the Philadelphia LGBTQ Bar Association’s Judicial Portrait Committee.
The inaugural work of the Judicial Portrait Project recognized Judges Mary D. Colins and Patricia A. McInerney of the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas at an unveiling ceremony held on June 14, 2023 in the Law Library of the First Judicial District in Philadelphia City Hall.
