We commonly hear the word “gentrification,” but how does it affect the Kensington, Northern Liberties, Girard, Poplar, and other adjoining neighborhoods? Ramonita G. de Rodriguez Library invites long-term neighborhood residents and newcomers alike to talk about shaping their community into one that serves a greater good for everyone. Explore these ideas, and work towards actionable steps, in a discussion with community advocates and stakeholders. 

Take part in this discussion, and enjoy samples by local businesses Federal Donuts, Mammoth Coffee, and Rustica pizza!

This program is presented in partnership with The Philadelphia Citizen and the Free Library of Philadelphia's Center for Public Life.
