The Womens March on Washington cheat sheet
1. Signs
You can certainly make your own sign — all you need is a piece of poster board and a Sharpie. But if you’d rather download signage and take it to your local printer to get a more professional-type sign made, you can head over to Dome for some graphic poster concepts. Or just pick up a sign from the Amplifier Foundation — they headed up an art contest for the protest and plan to print and disseminate tens of thousands of signs and banners for the march. They haven’t announced their winner yet, so stay tuned.
2. Sign support
Keep in mind that wooden supports for signs and placards are not permitted, so you’ll have to carry your sign by hand (or attach it to something that could not be used as a weapon). Cardboard signposts are fine.
3. Snacks
By all means, pack any and all snacks for the rally and protest. That said, backpacks are not permitted at the march — and neither are bags larger than 8 by 6 by 4 inches. That’s pretty small, so plan accordingly — think sandwiches, wraps and lots and lots of protein bars. Alternately, you are allowed to bring an additional 12 by 12 by 6-inch plastic or gallon bag, into which you could stuff your lunch.
