Open Arts Philly Presents: College Night

Take some time off studying by taking part in Open Arts Philly’s College Night! Ice skate your troubles away at The Blue Cross RiverRink at 101 S Columbus Blvd (right by Penn’s Landing) *tonight* between 5pm and 10:30pm. Admission is FREE, and skate rentals are only $10 – just don’t forget to bring your student ID.  You can also cozy up by the fire pits and get some food from The Lodge, a pop-up restaurant. Here are the skating sessions:

5 – 6:30pm
7 – 8:30pm
9 – 10:30pm

 

You can get to the Blue Cross RiverRink by taking the Regional Rail (R5) Paoli-Thorndale SEPTA Line to Market East Station. Beyond that it’s super-easy to take a SEPTA bus to Penn’s Landing, since a lot of bus routes stop at both Market Street and Penn’s Landing (like route 23). It’s cheapest to get an Independence Pass ($12) and use it on both modes of transportation, since it’s a day pass for all SEPTA modes of transportation.

Happy skating!
