The Walk Port Richmond! workshop is a series of activities to promote community engagement and encourage healthy exercise in your neighborhood. The workshop will help you share what you know about your neighborhood and explore local landmarks and how to walk to them.

Participants will get to build models of their favorite neighborhood landmarks using hundreds of small, colorful objects. They will then present their models to others and talk about how they would walk to them from their home, school, or workplace. Is there a historic building you'd like others to know about? Or a beautiful walk you take regularly? Share your experience and suggest routes to take and street improvements you would like to see.

Some of the landmarks and walking routes will be selected to be marked with pedestrian wayfinding signs from the Walk Your City campaign. Come to the workshop and help Port Richmond walk!
