Events

This event is being organized by the Pittsburgh Association for the Abolition of Vivisection in honor of National Primate Liberation Week:

PAAV invites you to join us for National Primate Liberation Week

National Primate Liberation Week is October 17th – 24th. Multiple
events are in the works that will target local animal research
facilities.

The main event will take place on Saturday, October 24th at 3:30pm.
This event welcomes a diversity of tactics. We will start at Mellon
Institute (5th and Bellefield in Oakland) to protest the multiple
animal researchers inside and will make our voices heard. We will
then march down 5th ave to the Biomedical Science Towers, ending at
Biomedical Science Tower 3 (3501 5th Ave). The march is non-permitted
but there will be room for those with varying levels of interest.

This protest is going to be a white bloc meaning those that choose to
will be wearing white coveralls. We will also have leaflets detailing four nonhuman
animal researchers at the places we will be visiting. We will have
white hazmat suits and masks available for people as well as signs and
a banner so all you need to do is bring yourself (and hopefully your
friends). While being part of the white bloc is not required, it is
encouraged for purposes of solidarity, anonymity, and visual impact.

Other events are in the works and we will keep you posted. If you
would like to stay updated but are not already on our email list, send
