‘I’m carrying the wheel’: Week Events January 25 – 31st

Happy post-Jonas blizzard!

Now that we’ve all got Weezer’s the Blue Album out of our heads (extra props if you got this title reference…), it’s time to clear the snow (or at least, like 5% of our sidewalks) and get on with the week.

Here’s the best events in the 215:

  • Women Bike PHL – Coffee Club -Downtown: Each Wednesday, lady bikers meet at a different coffee shop in Philadelphia for Coffee Club — an informal gathering where Philly’s women bicyclists can share tips, rant, support, celebrate, and, most importantly….CAFFEINATE together.

  • The Foragers Opening: See one couple’s relationship and twenty years of photographing local fungi and mycology.
