About This Event

Join us for a dynamic conversation exploring how power is shaped, checked, and challenged in a healthy democracy. This panel brings together leaders from law, government oversight, and the arts to examine how institutions and individuals hold authority to account.

  • Justice Richard Gabriel, Colorado Supreme Court
    Justice Gabriel offers a front-row view of how judicial decisions uphold constitutional principles, protect individual rights, and serve as a critical check within our system of separated powers.
  • Donald K. Sherman, Executive Director & Chief Counsel, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW)
    A national expert on government ethics, corruption, and accountability, Sherman brings deep insight into how watchdog organizations confront abuses of power and defend democratic norms at the federal level.
  • Ravi Zupa, Artist & Cultural Commentator
    Through provocative, cross-disciplinary work, Zupa explores themes of authority, resistance, and civic responsibility. His artistic perspective adds a crucial dimension to how culture can reveal — and rebalance — power.

Together, they will examine how legal, civic, and creative forces shape our shared understanding of power in a democracy — and what it means to safeguard it.
