Learn How to Navigate Clutter with Space for You! 
 
One of our Penn's Village Business Members, Peggy Wonder (owner of Space for You) will be leaving Philadelphia for the West Coast and warm California weather. As an active part of the Penn's Village community, Peggy has led several programs and helped many clients. Before she leaves in July, she is offering a free workshop that might be of interest to our PV members:
 
Navigating Clutter, 5 Light-hearted Steps from Chaos to Calm -- Saturday May 31, 10am, at Rittenhouse Library, lower level.

In this interactive presentation, Peggy will guide you through processes she uses to declutter, downsize, organize, and maintain belongings. You’ll take home concepts and tips you can apply immediately. Together everyone will bring curiosity, clarity and fun to the clutter!

Thank you for being a terrific part of the community, Peggy!
