Flagstaff March for Science
Saturday, April 22
2:00PM – 5:00PM
Thorpe Park Ramada (south end of park)
191 N. Thorpe Rd., Flagstaff, AZ 86001
The March for Science on Saturday, April 22, sounds a call to support and safeguard the
scientific community. Recent policy changes have caused heightened worry among
scientists. The mischaracterization of science as a partisan issue, which has given
policymakers permission to reject overwhelming evidence, is a critical and urgent matter.
It is time for people who support scientific research and evidence-based policies to take a
public stand and be counted.
The primary march will be in Washington, DC, but satellite marches are occurring across
the nation, including in several Arizona cities. We encourage you to join your local march!
The Flagstaff March for Science will start at Thorpe Park and head to Flagstaff City Hall.
After the march, join a rally with speakers from the community in celebration of science
and to support the scientific community.
The Flagstaff March for Science is NOT JUST FOR SCIENTISTS – it is critical for anyone who
supports science, science education, and science policy to join in this effort and stand with
us as we advocate for our future.
Sponsored by the Committee for Evidence-Based Action (www.facebook.com/nauceba) &
the local scientific community in coordination with the National March for Science.
