Bike Share is Coming: Weekend Guide April 3-5, 2015

Spring is coming.

Who’s psyched for Philly Bike Share to launch on April 23, 2015?

Although we can’t wait to get on two wheels, we can make the best of this weekend, too. Get ready to celebrate the holiday weekend with outdoor & First Friday events.

Philly Weekend Events for April 3 – 5, 2015

  • LOOK IT’S NOT YOU IT’S EVERYTHING: OK: Full disclaimer. So I met this new friend during my fermenting class (by Amanda Feifer O’Brien of Phickle) and am psyched to swing by this event! In her premier solo exhibition, artist Kelsey Stoler embraces the contour of an instinct. Her canvas offers an empathetic caricature, a raw transfer of a chance observation, unfettered by expectations. First Friday, April 3rd, 2015 from 5-9 PM; Indy Hall, 22 N3rd St. Philadelphia, PA;  Free.
  • First Friday at United By Blue: Join the socially-good retailer for free coffee cocktails in their Old City location. Friday, April 3 from 6-9 PM, 144 N 2nd St, Philadelphia. Meetup.
  • Springtime on the Schuylkill’ Fun Run and Pot Luck: Runners of all paces and abilities are invited to join the city’s running clubs for a fun run starting at Lloyd Hall and ending with a pot luck picnic. All are welcome and you do not need to be in a club to come run! The run will go out and back along West River Drive and end in the Azalea Garden behind the Art Museum for a festive picnic and socializing with the city’s running clubs. Saturday, April 4th at 9 AM; BYO Drinks & Food; Meet at Lloyd Hall, 1 Boathouse Row, Philadelphia. Facebook RSVP.
  • April Full Moon Bike Ride: April is the month of the Full Pink Moon. The route can be approximately 10 miles and end at a random bar. Saturday, April 4th at 8 PM, Philadelphia Museum of Art, Facebook RSVP.
