SUMMARY:Postponed: The Lucille and Fred Clifton House
DESCRIPTION:This event has been postponed due to inclement weather \n\nJoin Baltimore Heritage and The Clifton House team on Wednesday\, January 8th at 5:00pm for an exclusive\, behind-the-scenes tour of the historic home of acclaimed poet Lucille Clifton and community activist Fred Clifton. In 1968\, the Cliftons moved into this charming house in Baltimore’s picturesque Windsor Hills neighborhood. This house was a hub of creativity\, service\, and activism\, and it was Lucille Clifton’s home when she became Poet Laureate of Maryland in 1979. \nIn 2019\, the Clifton family reclaimed the century-old home and lovingly restored it. Today\, The Clifton House provides resources and creative development for historically marginalized people in Baltimore and beyond. With a special focus on Afrodiasporic\, women\, and gender-nonconforming LGBTQIA+ poets\, writers\, artists\, and creative activists\, The Clifton House continues to be a beacon of inspiration and empowerment. \nWe invite you to be part of this enriching experience and learn about the remarkable Clifton family and the legacy of this historic West Baltimore home. \nAccessibility\nPlease note that due to its historic nature\, The Clifton House is not currently ADA-accessible. However\, we are committed to making the space as welcoming as possible. For any accommodation requests\, please contact us at info@thecliftonhouse.co. \nParking\nParking at The Clifton House is limited. To ensure a smooth experience\, we encourage attendees to use Uber\, Lyft\, or park on Clifton Road (parallel to Talbot Road). For those using public transit\, the house is accessible via the 79 and 34 MTA bus routes. \nIf you have any questions or need additional assistance\, don’t hesitate to reach out. We look forward to sharing this inspiring evening with you!

SUMMARY:The Baltimore Basilica: A Behind-the-Scenes Tour
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a tour of the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary\, also called the Baltimore Basilica. Built primarily between 1806 and 1821\, the Baltimore Basilica was the first Cathedral built in the United States.  Bishop John Carroll\, America’s first Bishop and a cousin of Charles Carroll of Declaration of Independence signing fame\, was lucky to connect with architect Benjamin Henry Latrobe\, who volunteered his architectural services and was to later achieve the moniker “Father of American Architecture.” This internationally significant building that has played a central role in the history of Baltimore and the Catholic Church\, and\, incidentally\, happens to have more than a few accolades of its own:  Minor Basilica (designated 1937)\, National Historic Landmark (designated 1972)\, Baltimore City historic landmark (designated 1975)\, and a national shrine (designated 1993). \nThe Basilica is 100% ADA compliant. There are wheelchair ramps to gain entry from the street level into the church\, and elevators inside\, so that all areas of the church are accessible\, however\, the Basilica does not have wheelchairs available for use. \nWe hope to see you there!

Abell\, John H. B.

SUMMARY:The Catacombs Under Westminster: Two Hundred Years of Tombs and Edgar Allan Poe’s Gravesite
DESCRIPTION:Join us to explore the eerie catacombs underneath Baltimore’s First Presbyterian Church\, now called Westminster Hall\, and the graves that surround it\, including the final resting place of Edgar Allan Poe. The burial ground predates the church\, which was built on arches above the gravesites\, so that the graveyard and its tombstones lie both underneath and around the building. We bet you will also recognize more than a few Baltimore street names as we walk among the patriots and civic leaders buried at Westminster including Calhoun\, Hollins\, Gilmore\, and Bentalou. All told\, the compact cemetery next to the University of Maryland School of Law is the final resting place for over 1\,000 individuals. We can’t wait to see you “Where Baltimore’s History Rests in Peace!”
