International Beer Day and More Dates to Look Forward to in August

6 Celebrated on the first Friday in August, INTERNATIONAL BEER DAY is as good a reason as any to venture to your local bar or brewpub to sample different beers of the world. Careful! There are many such beers… And with craft breweries proliferating, some may be looking for signwork.

16 NATIONAL TELL A JOKE DAY is not an official “national day” and that’s no joke. But if you heard a good one on Beer Day, claim it as your own as you entertain others with it today.

21 First observed in 1988, NATIONAL SENIOR CITIZENS DAY serves as a great occasion to spend time with the senior citizens you know and love. It may also be a good day to volunteer some signage at a retirement home.

26 NATIONAL WOMEN’S EQUALITY DAY honors this day in 1920 when Congress passed the 19th Amendment to the Constitution granting women full and equal voting rights. After 101 years, we still have a long way to go to achieve full equality, but nonetheless, celebrate this day!
