Brooklyn Bar Association will honor Arthur Aidala at annual dinner
MILL BASIN — The Brooklyn Bar Association Foundation’s annual dinner is finally back and this year’s should be a good one as it is honoring past president Arthur Aidala at El Caribe in Mill Basin on Monday, Dec. 5.
Aidala, who was president of the BBA from 2015 to 2016, will receive the President’s Award.
There will be three other honorees that night including Hon. Larry Martin, justice of the Kings County Supreme Court, who will receive the Distinguished Judicial Service Award, Hemalee Patel, general counsel for the NYC Board of Elections, who will receive the Vivian H. Agress Trailblazer Award, and Hon. Bruce Balter, a retired justice of the Kings County Supreme Court, who will receive the Brooklyn Barrister Special Recognition Award.
The Brooklyn Bar Association Foundation had hosted an annual dinner every year in December since its 100th anniversary until COVID forced it to cancel in 2020 and again in 2021. It will finally return this year, however, instead of being held at the New York Marriott at the Brooklyn Bridge in Downtown Brooklyn it has been moved to Mill Basin.
