Rochester People’s March – Saturday, January 17, 2026
Defend Our Rights and Our Future
Assemble at 11:30 a.m. The march will kick off at 11:45 a.m. at the Memorial Art Gallery, at the corner of Goodman Street and University Avenue. Participants are asked to gather on the sidewalk and park on the street or in nearby lots (please avoid MAG parking lots).
Bring your signs and let your voices be heard as we join thousands of marchers across the country to stand up for our freedoms. This is a feminist-led day of action, sending a clear message to Donald and his allies: don’t touch our freedoms.
We will march down University Avenue and Atlantic Avenue to Three Heads Brewing (family-friendly), located at 186 Atlantic Ave. Join us afterward for a drink or snack and the chance to connect with fellow activists. This will also be a great opportunity to learn how to get involved with NOW (National Organization for Women) and other local organizations.
Let’s make our voices heard!
