The Field Museum announces official participation in March for Science Chicago

The March for Science Chicago is proud to announce that The Field Museum of Natural History will participate in the March on Earth Day, Saturday, April 22. The Field Museum has been at the center of science in Chicago for over a century, inspiring curiosity in the city, contributing world-class research to the scientific community, and serving as an educational resource for visitors of all ages.

The March is a nonpartisan effort to show support for the scientific community and encourage curiosity and exploration, the heart of the scientific approach. The March for Science Chicago stands with The Field Museum, and its hundreds of scientists, to affirm and celebrate the importance of science in our everyday lives, in our community, and in our world.
