CHAUTAUQUA – Two Supreme Court Justices will be speaking at Chautauqua Institution on two consecutive Mondays.
Justice Anthony M. Kennedy will speak on Monday, July 22, in the Hall of Philosophy at 3:30 p.m., and Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will speak the following Monday, July 29, at 10:45 a.m. in the Amphitheater.
Justice Kennedy, who last spoke at Chautauqua in the summer of 2009, will be speaking on the Week Five theme, “The Pursuit of Happiness.” Justice Ginsburg will be speaking on the Week Six theme, “Crime and Punishment,” with a special lecture on portrayal of the law in opera—as she combines her two passions.
The appearance by Justices Kennedy and Ginsburg comes on the heels of a visit to Jamestown by Chief Justice John Roberts, Jr., who was on hand in May to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Robert H. Jackson Center.
