5th Square, Philly's urbanist PAC and advocacy organization, is hosting a regular monthly meet-up on the second Thursday of each month, and our September 12th meet-up will be from 6-8 pm.

For this meeting, we will be in Old City, upstairs at Buffalo Billiards.

We’ll be joined by special guest Lily Bernheimer, author of “The Shaping of Us: How Everyday Spaces Structure Our Lives, Behaviour, and Well-Being.”

Come for a short book talk and Q&A, meet other 5th Square members and volunteers, and learn more about what we’re working on this fall and how to get involved.

This will be a casual social gathering, so if you've been meaning to check out one of our events or meetings but haven't made it out yet, this will be a good first one to come to. And please bring a friend or two!

We're hoping these monthly meet-ups will become a fun way for new and existing supporters to connect with other people involved with 5th Square and urbanist issues in Philadelphia, either professionally or in a volunteer/activist capacity, and learn more about what our all-volunteer organization is up to. In the future, we'll also continue inviting some guest speakers to come discuss their work with the group. Suggest possible speakers to us at 5thsq@5thsq.org.
