With the Holidays and end of the year hustle, I was a bit lax in keeping this post up to date, but with a new year, comes many new & exciting events in Philly. Here once again is this week’s list of some of the fun, interesting, educational and exciting things I’ll be doing over the next few months.
(Disclaimer: This is not a comprehensive list. There are many more events occurring throughout the city and I encourage you to locate and attend the ones that appeal to you. These are just some of the events for the organizations that I am involved with. If you need help locating an event, please let me know and I’ll try and point you in the right direction.)
