JJ Tiziou has walked the entire perimeter of Philadelphia THIRTEEN TIMES and will be embarking on his 14th complete circumnavigation of the city Sept 6-29 while also facilitating the experience for anyone who'd like to join.

On Thursdays during the walk season, 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 the walk segments too!

These sessions are great opportunities for:

  • Folks who are walking an upcoming segment to help prepare
  • Folks who've walked a preceeding segment to reconnect
  • Folks who're just curious about the project or the city
