Welcome to the Class of 2010! The Harvard Law School Arts & Literature Law Society (ALLS) is a cultural, social and educational organization dedicated to offering a forum for HLS students interested in the arts, as broadly defined but not limited to include the visual arts, performance arts, and literature. Although our particular focus lies at the intersection of law and the arts, we try to foster humanistic ideals on a broader scale, reflecting the varied interests and needs of the student community of Harvard Law School. Filling a gap in the field, ALLS enjoys much interest from individuals both on and off campus. The organization consists of more than 200 members, including students from Harvard Law School, Harvard Business School, Harvard Faculty of Arts and Science and other Boston-area graduate schools, as well as academics and professionals intrigued by the arts.
