This Earth Day, April 22nd, Western New Yorkers will March in Buffalo alongside the National March for Science in DC to protect our health, environment, education, and safety.
The Buffalo March for Science begins at 1:00 PM at Soldier’s circle and follows Lincoln Parkway to a rally and science festival in Delaware Park ending at 3:30 PM.

The science festival will also feature community groups such as the New York Public Interest Research Group, Out in STEM, Science Teacher’s Association of New York State, Sierra Club Western New York, Buffalo Women in STEMM, Buffalo-area Engineering Awareness for Minorities, and many more.
Join us before the March on April 20th for Benefit Concert and Science Poster Art Auction at Stamps…the Bar on 98 Main Street in Tonawanda at 6pm.
