July 31, 2011 would have been Milton Friedman’s 99th birthday. To honor his vision and the impact he has had on our society, we have collaborated with policy groups from around the world to hold events in his honor.
In the four years since the first "Friedman Day" we have seen a wide variety of events. There have been fieldtrips focused on the prosperity of a free market, web chats, radio addresses, policy discussions, pancake breakfasts, luncheons, dinners, cocktails, movie screenings, and out right birthday celebrations. There have been events with celebrities and events with children. Most events have been as simple as a luncheon and a presentation.
Below is an intereactive map of events being held this year around the country and around the world. Dr. Friedman's legacy will be celebrated in 6 countries, 46 states, and the District of Columbia. Check back occationally to see updates and additions.
