SUMMARY:Transforming the Noxzema Factory into the Fox Building: A Virtual Talk with Jessica Damseaux
DESCRIPTION:The Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present a series of 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. Join architect Jessica Damseaux to learn about how Alexander Design Studio adapted the historic Noxzema factory into a vibrant mixed-use community of apartments and artist workspaces. \nTickets are donation based. We encourage you to give what you can to support the BAF and Baltimore Heritage. Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. \nThe Fox Building is an adaptive reuse of a 20th century Noxzema factory located in Hampden just blocks from the Avenue on 36th Street. Noxzema got its start in Maryland and became famous for its skin cream in little blue glass jars. \nThe building has been transformed into a vibrant mixed-use community of apartments and artist workspaces. Many of the building’s original features have been retained and restored including the original maple wood flooring\, glass block windows\, soaring 15’ factory ceilings\, and massive mushroom shaped concrete columns. The renovation was designed to meet the requirements of both National and State Historic tax credits. \nThe result is a decidedly modern mixed use building that celebrates its industrial origins. It includes 96 loft style and studio apartments with original concrete floors and modern kitchens\, studio artist space and gallery\, and common areas including a theater\, gym\, and pool. \nLearn about its transformation from the architect.

SUMMARY:The Shipwrecks of Curtis Bay with Underwater Archaeologist Dr. Susan Langley
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nDid you know there is a ship graveyard in Baltimore’s Curtis Creek? Join us onsite in front of half-submerged and hidden vessels for a talk by Maryland’s State Underwater Archaeologist\, Dr. Susan Langley. While there are three main collections of shipwrecked vessels in the area\, Dr. Langley will address her exploration of this area\, the largest and most diverse section off of Hawkins Point.  \nIt’s hard to believe\, but less than 60 years ago when steamships plied these waters\, the area around Curtis Bay was known for its strawberry fields and peach orchards. The area’s industrial nature is relatively recent. Still\, for over one hundred years a few groups have been local staples\, including Davison Chemical (now part W.R. Grace)\, the U.S. Coast Guard Yard\, and A. Smith & Sons\, now Smith Shipyard.  \nPlease join us and Dr. Langley in this outdoor talk to discover the rich history of this area and the people who lived nearby\, and of course the half-sunken ships themselves that include vessels built for WWI\, a ship that surprisingly sailed unmanned from North Carolina to Maine and back\, an early example of a ship made from cement\, and some intriguing schooners and tugs for good measure. We hope to see you on Hawkins Point!  \n  \n*There is an on-site parking lot. Please bring your own outdoor chair or blanket! We will have light snacks and drinks. \n  \nAbout the Speaker: Dr. Susan Langley lectures internationally on a broad range of subjects including maritime archaeology\, textile technology\, piracy\, and the archaeology and present practices of bees and beekeeping globally. Although her “day-job” is Maryland’s State Underwater Archaeologist directing the Maryland Maritime Archaeology Program for more than 25 of its 30 years\, she is also the beekeeper for the hive at Government House in Annapolis.  Dr. Langley is an adjunct professor at several colleges and universities\, where she teaches underwater archaeology and the history and anthropology of piracy. She also taught maritime archaeology in Thailand for several years through UNESCO. She is a Master SCUBA diver instructor\, judges Maryland’s History Day competition\, and lectures and leads expeditions for Zegrahm Expeditions.

SUMMARY:Virtual Talk: Poole and Hunt to Clipper Mill\, A History of Adaptive Use with Nathan Dennies
DESCRIPTION:The Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present a series of 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. Next up is Nathan Dennies with a short history about Clipper Mill in Woodberry\, from the Poole & Hunt machine shop in the 1850s to today\, and its many uses in-between. \nWoodberry was once home to the largest machine shop and iron works in the country. Poole & Hunt thrived alongside the booming textile industry of the Jones Falls Valley. It grew and remained a site of heavy industry for well over a century\, was later adapted by a flourishing arts community\, and after a tragic fire\, was transformed into Clipper Mill: a mixed use development that includes manufacturing\, residences\, design and engineering firms\, fine dining\, and more. \nThis presentation will cover the history of the Poole & Hunt Machine Shop and Iron Works\, including the impressive things they made here\, from the columns of the Capitol Building in Washington DC to contributions to both World War efforts. Discover how this site of heavy industry has changed over its 150 year history to meet the various needs of its users. And learn about the role of historic preservation in adapting historic sites for modern uses.

SUMMARY:Laurel Cemetery Memorial Project Talk at Providence Baptist Church
DESCRIPTION:We are happy to help the Laurel Cemetery Memorial Task Force spread the news about their upcoming black history lecture. The task force is endeavoring to erect a permanent memorial in recognition of the thousands of African Americans interred at Historic Laurel Cemetery\, to ensure the safety and stability of the site into the foreseeable future\, and to educate the public about the rich history of the cemetery and the lives of those buried there. \nLaurel Cemetery was incorporated in 1852 as Baltimore’s first nondenominational cemetery for African Americans. It quickly became a popular place of burial for people across Black Baltimore’s socioeconomic spectrum\, including 230 Black Civil War veterans\, members of the United States Colored Troops (U.S.C.T.) and notables such as Civil Rights activist Reverend Harvey Johnson. \nIn 1958 and after a series of lawsuits failed to prevail in the courts\, Laurel Cemetery was leveled. Today it is the site of the Belair-Edison Crossing Shopping Center\, and home to several businesses. However\, many current patrons and nearby residents have no knowledge of the site’s former purpose and significance. Join us to learn more about the important history of the site and how we can preserve its memory.

SUMMARY:New Light on Hidden Lives: A Talk on Discovering the Histories of Hampton's Enslaved Workers
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nIn 1790\, the Ridgely family’s Hampton Mansion was the largest house in the United States. Who worked to keep this enormous estate running efficiently? Who labored in the surrounding gardens and\, a little farther away\, in the lucrative\, but treacherous iron furnaces? Although the Ridgely family hired indentured servants and free blacks\, the estate depended on slave labor for over 100 years\, ending only when Maryland State law ended the institution in 1864. The Ridgely’s owned over 500 enslaved people during that period.   \nGregory Weidman\, Curator\, Hampton National Historic Site\, will present a lecture based on her recent research as a member of the Hampton Ethnographic Team that worked for three years to uncover and document the lives and families of those enslaved on the Hampton estate. Her presentation will showcase the broad range of historic sources that were used to explore the personal stories of these individuals\, documenting their lives both before and after freedom\, including identifying their family groups and the lives of descendants. We hope you will join us to hear the important stories of the people enslaved at Hampton Mansion.

SUMMARY:Destination Baltimore: A Talk on the Story of Immigration and Opportunity
DESCRIPTION:Event Cancelled \n\nFor more than two centuries and for almost two million people\, Baltimore was the destination that promised hope and opportunity–a new life. In this talk\, historian Jack Burkert will discuss the realities of immigrating to America. Beginning in the 18th century\, and accelerating through the 19th century\, immigrants provided the labor force necessary for Baltimore to become an industrial powerhouse. They built critical infrastructure\, created steel in mills\, and assembled garments in Baltimore’s burgeoning manufacturing world. New arrivals would congregate in neighborhoods where friends and relatives lived and the language was familiar. In these enclaves\, everyday customs from their home countries persisted and flourished.  \nThroughout the 20th century\, new arrivals from other parts of America continued to fuel Baltimore’s growth. The Great Migration and the Hillbilly Migration added to Baltimore’s dynamic heritage. Who were these people? Where were they from? Why did they leave home? We hope you’ll join us to explore these questions and more at this lecture!

SUMMARY:Laurel Cemetery Memorial Project Talk at Timothy Baptist Church
DESCRIPTION:We are happy to help the Laurel Cemetery Memorial Task Force spread the news about their upcoming black history lecture. The task force is endeavoring to erect a permanent memorial in recognition of the thousands of African Americans interred at Historic Laurel Cemetery\, to ensure the safety and stability of the site into the foreseeable future\, and to educate the public about the rich history of the cemetery and the lives of those buried there. \nLaurel Cemetery was incorporated in 1852 as Baltimore’s first nondenominational cemetery for African Americans. It quickly became a popular place of burial for people across Black Baltimore’s socioeconomic spectrum\, including 230 Black Civil War veterans\, members of the United States Colored Troops (U.S.C.T.) and notables such as Civil Rights activist Reverend Harvey Johnson. \nIn 1958 and after a series of lawsuits failed to prevail in the courts\, Laurel Cemetery was leveled. Today it is the site of the Belair-Edison Crossing Shopping Center\, and home to several businesses. However\, many current patrons and nearby residents have no knowledge of the site’s former purpose and significance. Join us to learn more about the important history of the site and how we can preserve its memory.

SUMMARY:The Woman's Hour: The Great Fight to Win the Vote with Author Elaine Weiss
DESCRIPTION:Nashville\, August 1920: Thirty-five states have ratified the Nineteenth Amendment\, twelve have rejected or refused to vote\, and one last state is needed. It all comes down to Tennessee\, the moment of truth for the suffragists\, after a seven-decade crusade. Join us as author Elaine Weiss discusses her new book “The Woman’s Hour: The Great Fight to Win the Vote” where she tells the story of activists winning their own freedom in one of the last campaigns forged in the shadow of the Civil War\, and the beginning of the great twentieth-century battles for civil rights.  \nIn her book\, Ms. Weiss describes the opposing forces in the fight for women’s suffrage\, including politicians with careers at stake\, liquor companies\, railroad magnates\, and racists who didn’t want black women voting. Woodrow Wilson\, Warren Harding\, Frederick Douglass\, and Eleanor Roosevelt also play important roles in this story replete with dirty tricks\, betrayals and bribes\, bigotry\, Jack Daniel’s\, and the Bible. \nThis talk is a partnership between Baltimore Heritage and the Garrett-Jacobs Mansion. This program and our speaker series have been funded by Mayor Bernard C. “Jack” Young and the Baltimore Office of Promotion and the Arts.

SUMMARY:Baltimore in the Golden Age of Radio
DESCRIPTION:Note – Change of Date. This talk was originally scheduled for October 13. It will now take place on Sunday\, October 6\, 2019. \n\nFrom Guglielmo Marconi’s experiments in sending audio signals via radio waves in the 1890s to the strains of Rock and Roll coursing through teenage ears in the 1960s\, and everything in between\, Baltimore historian Jack Burkert explores the Golden Age of Radio in the lives of Americans\, with a special focus on Baltimore. In today’s world of internet and visual media\, we forget how radio transformed America with national networks\, new snazzy commercial jingles\, and the story of how one company came to dominate the new radio market only to suddenly exit altogether. Of course\, Mr. Burkert will take a look at Baltimore’s own radio stations\, some of the broadcasts they transmitted\, and a few of the charming personalities involved in the radio business along the way.  \nThis talk is a partnership between Baltimore Heritage and the Garrett-Jacobs Mansion. This program and our speaker series have been funded by Mayor Bernard C. “Jack” Young and the Baltimore Office of Promotion and the Arts. \n*NEW* Come early for an inside look at the historic Garrett-Jacobs Mansion during a rare Sunday afternoon pre-talk tour\, led by one of our docents. The tours start at 1 p.m. Learn more about the Garrett family’s far-reaching influence\, the building’s architecture (designed by two prominent architects\, Stanford White and John Russell Pope)\, and “Baltimore’s Mrs. Astor\,” Mary Frick Garrett Jacobs. Tickets are an additional $10.

SUMMARY:Finding the Love: How to Appreciate Baltimore’s Curious Empty Buildings with Architect and Artist Jerome Gray
DESCRIPTION:From the Modernist Kagro Building at the corner of North and Maryland Avenues to the New Refuge Deliverance Cathedral at St. Paul and Chase Streets that has been covered in scaffolding for over a decade\, Baltimore contains a number of distinct buildings that are highly visible\, curiously vacant\, and all but overlooked in plain sight. Architect and artist Jerome Gray will discuss his research into who built these places\, who occupied them\, who were supposed to be their stewards\, and how these seemingly dull places actually contribute to Baltimore’s built environment.  \nMr. Gray’s discussion will combine his research into the histories of several buildings\, comments on them as an architect and artist\, and a presentation of his own artwork celebrating them as part of Baltimore’s urban fabric. Please join us for the talk at 5:30 and stay for a wine and cheese reception. Both are free!  \nWe are pleased to be sponsoring this event in partnership with the Baltimore Architecture Foundation\, which is handling registration. \nThis talk is part of Free Fall Baltimore which is presented by BGE\, and is a program of the Baltimore Office of Promotion and the Arts\, an independent non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. \nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:Rowhouses Near and Far: Historian Charlie Duff on his New Book “The North Atlantic Cities”
DESCRIPTION:What do Amsterdam\, London\, Dublin\, and Baltimore have in common? They are part of the great family of the world’s rowhouse cities\, of course! Join historian Charlie Duff for an exploration of these and other row house cities and the debut of his newly released book\, The North Atlantic Cities. If you’ve ever wondered why we have so many rowhouses in Baltimore as compared to pretty much nearly everywhere else\, what it means to organize your city around them\, or what led Baltimoreans two hundred years ago to start the ball rolling down this rowhouse path\, this talk is for you. Mr. Duff will have copies of his book to purchase. \nThis talk is a partnership between Baltimore Heritage and the Garrett-Jacobs Mansion. This program and our speaker series have been funded by Mayor Bernard C. “Jack” Young and the Baltimore Office of Promotion and the Arts.
