[ Edge Events are opportunities for the Walk Around Philadelphia community to connect to some of the locations that we walk through during our perimeter walks ]
As part of the Tacony LAB community arts center's First Friday event series, State Representative Joe Hohenstein will share photos from his 5-day Walk Around the 117th.
Inspired by Walk Around Philadelphia and seeing the Walking the Edge exhibit at The Schuylkill Center, Rep Hohenstein set out to circumnavigate his own district on foot with different community partners, joining Walk Around Philadelphia participants on two segments of the perimeter that are in his district.
Perimeter walkers are invited to head over to Tacony Lab to hear all about it!
