Here’s what’s happening during Media Open Streets 2018! Check back before the event or check our Facebook page for last-minute changes or additions.

This list follows the route, starting at 5 Points (Rt 252 and Jackson St), going down Jackson to Third St, across Third to West St, and down West to Glen Providence Park. Please note that the locations are approximate but you should be able to find what you’re looking for.

Those who would like to do yoga at Glen Providence Park (11am or 1pm) should bring a yoga mat if possible.

Be on the lookout for Delco’s Spiderman who may turn up anywhere! Kids, keep your eyes peeled for pieces of chalk along the way. Feel free to use them to decorate the street! And you might just see some balloons getting turned into animals!

You can take a lunch or snack break at one of the many scrumptious restaurants in Media or bring a picnic lunch to the Park. The day is yours to fill as you like!

Maps will be available to pick up at the information table at 301 N Jackson so you can see what’s going on where and when. This is what they’ll look like!
