Darwin Day is coming up sooner than you might think, and you don't want to miss the opportunity to celebrate the 201st birthday of the biologist who reshaped our understanding of the origins of life.

Why Celebrate Darwin Day?
Darwin Day is about celebrating how science and reason make our lives better.  Why not have a party in honor of the person who made such a great contribution to our understanding of life and its development?

What Can Your Group Do?
The events your group can hold for Darwin Day are virtually limitless.  Moreover, you can combine multiple events into a day-long celebration, or even a Darwin Week!  Here are some ideas:

    - Host a speaker, panel or debate on Darwin and/or evolution
    - Urge your mayor or city council to issue a Darwin Day proclamation
    - Screen an evolution-related movie such as Inherit the Wind, Flock of Dodos, or some of NOVA's evolution-themed programs.
    - Throw a party!  Have a birthday cake (this makes a great tabling event) or an ice cream social, dress up like Darwin (Darwin look-alike contest?), and have a great time!
