Hi, Jeanine.
You only need to ask the reference librarians at the library you'll be
working with.
Finding this sort of information is just the thing they do, do well and
for free.
They can not only find dates like "Physics Week", but also have access
to directories of associations that will have free promotional materials.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can
change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.

They've dedicated a space at one of their branches and plan to develop kits, activities, speakers, and other hands-on programs. We plan?to have monthly themes and I'd like to tie these around some of the existing promotional efforts for science. For example, we are doing chemistry in October because of National Chemistry Week. What other science-related dates exist out there? If there are organizations that put out promotional materials, do you have contact information? I'd be glad to share the compiled list with the group.
