May 9 @ 7:00 pm 8:30 pm

In the final Row House Forum of the Spring, our speakers will explore the overlooked power of walking – from its physical and spiritual benefits to its countercultural weight in a car-centric world. Featuring reflections from founder of The Row House Tom Becker, Camino pilgrim Emily Nixon, and insights from local transit advocate Laura Pauls-Thomas, the evening ends, fittingly, with an optional stroll to a nearby pub. Tickets are limited. Grab yours today! Why Drive When You Can Walk? Tom Becker, Emily Nixon, Laura Pauls-Thomas Friday, May 9th, 7:00 PM The Trust Performing Arts Center 37 N.
