12pm ’til Sellout · Via Herself In The House! 5pm–7pm

This July 5, we’re celebrating the kind of freedom that actually matters — coming together, crushing some excellent cookies, and supporting people doing real good in Philly and beyond.

We’re teaming up with Via’s Cookies, a bakery started by Olivia Carpenter when she was still in college. Her mission? Make life sweeter for everyone — especially BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ students facing barriers to higher education. Her cookies are seriously good, totally inclusive (vegan and gluten-free versions of every flavor), and part of the proceeds go straight to students through her Student Spotlight Fund.

We’ll be offering a one-day-only beer and cookie pairing flight at Second District Brewing — and Via herself will be in the house from 5–7pm for a chill Snack & Chat, talking cookies, community, and how you can get involved.
