SUMMARY:Solo Art Exhibit: You Think You Know Me
DESCRIPTION:Transgender visual artist\, Tegan James of Metuchen\, will hold his first solo art show in an unconventional gallery setting. The show will be held at The Gallery at What’s New Men’s Consignment store on Main Street in Metuchen.\nThe theme of the show\, titled ‘You Think You Know Me’ relates to the LGBTQ community\, with a heavy focus on the topics of being transgender and the gender spectrum. Twelve paintings of acrylic on canvas have been selected for this show. Their sizes range from 16×20” to over 4’ feet tall.\n“It’s important that I use this opportunity to bring awareness to the transgender community\, not only to give a voice to myself and my own journey\, but also to be a voice for those out there who still feel lost\, scared or uncertain. It wasn’t until I was 36 years old that I discovered what was right with me\, and I wouldn’t have known if others weren’t out there sharing their stories too.”\nDetails: No cover charge; light refreshments

SUMMARY:March for Science - New Jersey Satellite March
DESCRIPTION:The Official Mission Statement of the New Jersey March for Science\nThe New Jersey March for Science affirms the guiding statement of the National March for Science (https://www.marchforscience.com/mission/):\n“The March for Science champions robustly funded and publicly\ncommunicated science as a pillar of human freedom and prosperity. We unite as a diverse\, nonpartisan group to call for science that upholds the common good and for political leaders and policy makers to enact evidence based policies in the public interest.”\nWe as scientists\, students\, teachers\, doctors\, engineers\, and concerned citizens have chosen to March for Science to bring attention to important issues that we see as threatening the safety of our fellow citizens\, our state\, our national character\, and the endeavor of scientific exploration.\n-Fact-Based Policies: We demand that our leaders take into account the best available scientific evidence when making their decisions\, in particular in the areas of climate change\, healthcare\, energy policy\, public safety\, education\, and resource management. We reject attempts to silence the voices bringing attention to scientific evidence of the serious problems faced by our society\, and we reject politically-motivated attacks on scientific research in any field.\n-Free Inquiry: As scientific study requires open exchange of ideas and free association across ethnic\, religious\, and national lines\, we demand that the right to speech\, travel\, and association be protected to the fullest extent\, in keeping with the highest ideals and traditions of the United States. Beyond the damage done to our nation’s scientific and economic output\, such policies are violations of our human rights\, and should be opposed regardless of their impact on science.\n-Education: We demand that public education be protected and strengthened\, to provide for our next generation of scientists\, engineers\, and innovators\, as well as for our future artists\, writers\, and musicians\, whose contributions are equally critical for a healthy democracy. The lack of quality education for all American children robs them of opportunities and deprives all of us of the fruits of their talents.\nFor these reasons\, we have chosen to March for Science. We march so that scientific evidence will be taken seriously. We march because our friends and colleagues are being targeted unjustly. We march because we are concerned about the next generation. We hope you will join us on April 22\, in Trenton\, in DC\, or elsewhere. And we hope you will join us afterwards\, for all the work that needs to be done.\n*The organizers of the New Jersey March for Science are volunteers and are not being compensated in any manner for their time and dedication to this event.

SUMMARY:March for Science
DESCRIPTION:The March for Science is a celebration of our passion for science and a call to support and safeguard the scientific community. Recent policy changes have caused heightened worry among scientists\, and the incredible and immediate outpouring of support has made clear that these concerns are also shared by hundreds of thousands of people around the world. The mischaracterization of science as a partisan issue\, which has given policymakers permission to reject overwhelming evidence\, is a critical and urgent matter. It is time for people who support scientific research and evidence-based policies to take a public stand and be counted. \nON APRIL 22\, 2017\, WE WALK OUT OF THE LAB AND INTO THE STREETS.\nWe are scientists and science enthusiasts. We come from all races\, all religions\, all gender identities\, all sexual orientations\, all abilities\, all socioeconomic backgrounds\, all political perspectives\, and all nationalities. Our diversity is our greatest strength: a wealth of opinions\, perspectives\, and ideas is critical for the scientific process. What unites us is a love of science\, and an insatiable curiosity. We all recognize that science is everywhere and affects everyone.
