PPLWalk No. 02 – STILL & STRONG

This month’s theme, Still & Strong, is about finding beauty in stillness and power in structure. We’ll explore the Fairmount neighborhood — where marble statues meet riverside paths — moving at a pace that allows for creativity and connection.

The route is designed with intentional stops so you’ll never feel rushed or left behind. Along the way, you’ll get photo prompts to spark new ideas and the opportunity to shoot both people and architecture in rich summer light.
