January Meeting Canceled

Because of the expected winter storm on Saturday, January 21, the PhACT meeting scheduled for that afternoon is canceled. We will reschedule the speaker (Tom Napier) for a future meeting.

Monthly Lectures

Monthly lectures are held on the third Saturday of each month (except in the summer).

Unless otherwise noted below, all meetings are held at 2:00 PM at the Community College of Philadelphia's Main campus in Center City Philadelphia, PA.
We usually use one of these meeting rooms:
  • Room S2-3 on the second floor of the Winnet Student Life building. This building is on 17th Street, just south of Spring Garden Street. It is between the parking garage on 17th street and the West Building on the corner where we have met in the past. Go up one flight of stairs and turn around to face down the hall where we will meet.
  • The C2-28 Lecture Room in the Center for Business and Industry at the corner of 18th and Callowhill streets. After you enter the building, take the stairs to the right to the second floor. When you get to the second floor, the lecture room is in front of you on the right. There is also a nice lounge area to the right of the lecture room.
The January, February, and March meetings will be in room C2-28.

Note: Parking is available in the college parking garage, but it is no longer free as in the past. The Saturday rate is $4.00.

PhACT thanks Dr. David Cattell and the Philadelphia Community College for providing us with an excellent meeting space.

The general public is more than welcome to attend our lectures. You do not need to be a PhACT member to attend.
