The march will step off from the City-County Building at noon, and proceed down Grant Street, turn left at Sixth Avenue, continue on Seventh Street and the Andy Warhol Bridge, through Allegheny Center, and into Allegheny Commons Park West for the mini-festival.
If you would like to ride from ELPC to downtown for the March, contact Wil Forrest to reserve a seat. The van will leave from the church at 10 am and will return to the church at 3 pm. All riders must be vaccinated and wear a mask.
