Women’s March Santa Maria Valley announces its 4th annual Women’s March to be held on Sunday, March 6. The March is being held in conjunction with International Women’s Day, an event that provides an opportunity to reinforce the fact that everyone has a role to play in forging a more gender-balanced world.

The Santa Maria Women’s March is led by women, but is for everyone,” said Audy Macdonald, a spokesperson for Women’s March SMV. "When women rise, we bring our communities with us, and our march will bring together people from all backgrounds, faiths, genders, ethnicities, disabilities, sexualities, ages, and immigration statuses.”

We will march together again as part of the nationwide #WomensWave movement. “We recognize that transformative changes are driven by grassroots actions and political activism,” continues Macdonald. “Our Women’s March will promote and celebrate the empowerment of all women in the Santa Maria Valley as we continue to work together to create change and inclusion in our city and county.”
