| National Chemistry Day, first celebrated in 1987 by members of the ACS Local Sections, educators, and other individual volunteers, was a vision of former ACS President, Dr. George C. Pimentel. His vision was for ACS to hold a simultaneous event nationwide to impress on the public the importance of chemistry in everyday life. The first celebration kicked off with a parade down the streets of the Washington, DC. In 1989, the celebration was expanded to a bi-yearly full-week event, and in 1993 National Chemistry Week became an annual celebration. |
