Virtual info session / open house

Event Status: Available

JJ Tiziou has walked the entire perimeter of Philadelphia FIFTEEN TIMES and will be embarking on his 16th complete circumnavigation of the city Sept 5-28 while also facilitating the experience for anyone who'd like to join.

He'll hop on Zoom to share about the project and answer questions about the experience. These virtual sessions are a great opportunity to learn about Walk Around Philadelphia and the city; you're invited to join for walk segments too!

Much like our walks, this virtual experience will be informed by the participants' priorities, but may include:

  • A virtual tour of the city's edge and some of the surprises that the map holds
  • Stories and photos from past Walk Around Philadelphia experiences
  • Answers to Frequently Asked Questions about the project
  • Answers to rarely asked questions about the project
  • Previews of what's next for the walk
  • & more…
