For the second year in a row, Temple University is joining the City of Philadelphia as a partner in Philly Free Streets, the daylong summertime event that closes Broad Street to traffic and becomes a block party from City Hall north to Butler Street.

This year s Philly Free Streets event on Temple s Main Campus will be bigger and better, combining the university s many community resources, including health screenings and job training, with fun and festivities, such as paint-by-numbers on adirondack chairs for the Temple Community Garden, face painting, arts and crafts and a DJ.

Relive last year s Philly Free Streets through photos, and don t miss this year s event on Saturday, Aug. 3 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.
