Chris Bliss to entertain Gala guests

The annual Columbus Bar Foundation Gala will be held March 10 at the Hyatt Regency, and guests will be entertained by Chris Bliss, a fresh and captivating new voice in the tradition of American satire from Will Rogers to Dennis Miller.

Bliss delivers smart comedy for the information age. A Tonight Show favorite, Jay Leno has called him "one of the brightest comedians around." Before beginning his comedy career, Bliss was internationally known as an innovative variety artist - touring with major artists from Eric Clapton to Julio Iglesias, and was chosen by Michael Jackson as the opening act for his record-breaking "Victory Tour." Insightful humor capped off with a world-class variety finale that you won't soon forget; Bliss is two of the best in one outstanding performer.

The black-tie Gala will support the Columbus Bar Foundation and further enable the Foundation to enhance quality of life for many Central Ohioans and to promote access to justice in our local courts. Over the past 20 years, the Foundation has grown from a fledgling charity to a proactive advocate and respected supporter of charitable activities in Central Ohio. 

Tickets are $500 each. For more information, please contact Marion Smithberger at marion@cbalaw.org or 614/340.2070.
