Benjamin Franklin's grave has long drawn penny-tossing tourists, but beyond the walls of Christ Church Burial Ground at 5th and Arch Streets, you'll find nearly 4,000 people buried here, including five signers of the Declaration of Independence.

Bells are an integral part of our nation's history. There's the Liberty Bell with its storied crack, of course. But the lesser-known bells at Christ Church in Philadelphia's Old City are even older.

Meet the Men Who Birthed a Nation: Fridays in June at 5:00pm

Think you know the guys on your money? Think again. Join us at Christ Church Burial Ground for a lively dive into the lives of America’s original "Daddies." Beyond the iconic Benjamin Franklin, you’ll meet the rebels, rascals, and visionaries—like Rush, Ross, and Hopkinson—who signed the Declaration and lived to tell the tale (mostly).

From revolutionary medical breakthroughs to the "quirky" habits of the elite, this isn’t your average dry history lesson. It’s a spirited look at the messy, inspiring, and very human stories behind the legacies that shaped a nation.

Sing masked with our pod in Old City on Sunday! We will practice songs from the song book led by volunteer song leaders (link in bio).

In solidarity with folks who are being kidnapped by ICE, we recognize that detained people are routinely denied insulin, sterile wound care, wheelchairs, sign language, cancer treatments. And of course, safe clean air.

We sing masked in solidarity, as people with disabilities and medical needs ourselves. We sing masked because we have disabled or chronically ill loved ones. And we sing masked to show support for disability justice in general!

🎵All voices welcome! No singing experience necessary.

😷N95 or KN95 masks required. We will have some extra masks for folks who need one.

🚾 Single stall gender neutral restroom available.
