Philadelphia RowHome Magazine is a unique collection of the finest local businesses around. It represents people from all walks of life that embody the work ethic and pride that built our city of neighborhoods. An Affair to Remember is a night to celebrate accomplishments. A time to enjoy the company of friends and colleagues – people we know and those we have yet to meet. Thank you for joining us on our mission to support our local businesses and recognize individuals who have left their mark on this City for future generations to enjoy. Thank you for making this city a place we are proud to call home. Because – as we all agree – there’s no place like home. And there’s no place like RowHome to keep those memories alive.

Please enjoy our photo collage featuring some of the greatest highlights of the night!
