Women's March Southern Oregon 2020
​Suffragist Centennial  - Vote Like Your Rights Depend On It!

Women's March of Southern Oregon will be held this year on Sunday, March 29, moving the march to Women's History Month on this momentous 100 year anniversary of the women's suffragist movement. The march will begin and end at the Medford Armory, followed by a Women's Faire with music, events, and speakers also at the Armory.

During the first annual Women's March, 18,000 participated. Last year's march brought in 3,000 people who braved the cold and rain.

"Moving to March will enable more people throughout the Rogue Valley to participate in this important, historic movement," said organizer Jennifer Bacon. "We'll remove conflicts for those wanting to commemorate Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and avoid southern Oregon's unfavorable January weather."

The move also reflects a larger trend nationwide to more localized marches.

This year's March and Women's Faire will celebrate 100 years of women's right to vote and provide opportunities for all ages to get involved in our community. Speakers, performances, musical acts, food, and activities are planned, with more to come. Stay up to date and RSVP by following Women's March of Southern Oregon on Facebook. 

About Women's March of Southern Oregon
Women's March Southern Oregon 2020 is part of a national movement to empower everyone who stands for women’s rights, human rights, civil liberties, and social justice for all. We are unified in our goal to respond to misogyny, arrogance, and the abuse of power, and we will not be silent.

We march to celebrate the lives of women and promote solidarity among people of all genders, ages, races, cultures, political affiliations, disabilities and backgrounds. We announce our collective vision to use our vote to create a government that supports and represents our intersecting identities and the social justice and human rights issues that impact all of us. 

​This is a non-partisan and peaceful event.
