At TheBurg, we love getting face time with our readers.
That’s why we like September so much, because it gives us multiple opportunities to meet you and greet you.
For the past few years, we’ve held an annual blowout that we call “TheBurg Bash.” We started this event to honor our Friends of TheBurg members, to show them how much we appreciate their support, and to provide a communal gathering for some of our biggest fans.
It’s such a wonderful, positive event, as folks pack into the stately King Mansion to chat about TheBurg, Harrisburg and anything else on their minds. By the time this issue hits the streets, tickets may be gone for this year’s bash on Sept. 5. But, if you became a Friend, you’re guaranteed to get an invite to our next event.
The very next day, we get another chance to meet up—in our own space. On Sept. 6, our office will be open (very) late, with great sounds filtering out onto the street. For the fourth straight year, we’re hosting a band for Jazz Walk, the annual tour de music organized by the Central Pa. Friends of Jazz. So, stop by, say “hi” and enjoy some tunes as you make your way around Midtown venues.
Lastly, we’re usually out and about for 3rd in the Burg, Harrisburg’s monthly art/nightlife happening, which we organize and promote. This month, it falls on Sept. 20, with another terrific lineup of events planned. See you there!
So, there you have it—three opportunities to see us in person this month. Of course, there are many more things to do in our area. For instance, in our arts-themed September issue, we have stories on the annual Gallery Walk, on the New Cumberland Music + Film Fest and on the start of new music seasons, among others.
If you want even more ideas, just flip to the back of this issue for the most comprehensive calendar of events in the Harrisburg region. It’s all here, and it’s all free, within the pages of TheBurg.
