The Cosmopolitan Club of Philadelphia is a private members' club in Philadelphia. It was founded in June 1928 by a group of women from Philadelphia and its surroundings.[http://www.cosclub.org The Cosmopolitan Club of Philadelphia – Home Page] In January 1930, the members had purchased the lot at 1616 Latimer Street, and oversaw the construction of an Art Deco building.
The members of the Cosmopolitan Club of Philadelphia are all women, and they represent a wide array of ages, races, cultures, interests, skills, professions and affiliations. They work and volunteer in the community. Thirty-eight of the club's past and present members have been named Distinguished Daughters of Pennsylvania.{{Cite web |title=Distinguished Daughters of Pennsylvania |url=https://distinguisheddaughtersofpa.org/ |access-date=June 14, 2024}}
