SUMMARY:Booth\, Baltimore & Lincoln’s Assassination: A Walking Tour of Green Mount Cemetery
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with Green Mount Cemetery and Baltimore Center Stage\, join us at Green Mount Cemetery to discover the tangled history of John Wilkes Booth\, Baltimore\, and the plots to kidnap and assassinate Abraham Lincoln. We’ll trace Booth’s childhood on Exeter Street and how he followed his Shakespearean-trained father’s footsteps into the theater world. We’ll get to know Booth–the womanizer\, the white supremacist\, and the presidential assassin. We’ll also revisit major events of the Civil War\, including the Pratt Street Riots and the surrender at Appomattox\, and how they influenced the conspirators’ actions leading up to the day Booth murdered Lincoln.  \nAs we walk\, you’ll hear about the events of the fateful day and the fates of the Booth’s co-conspirators. And of course\, we’ll see the unmarked burial site of Booth and the graves of two of his co-conspirators. We hope you’ll walk to the grounds of Green Mount Cemetery with us to discover this poignant history in a whole new light. \nThis tour is being offered in partnership with Baltimore Center Stage’s production of John Wilkes Booth: One Night Only. With your Green Mount Cemetery tour ticket\, you’ll receive a coupon code for $10 off a ticket to the show. \nAccessibility: Although there are some paved pathways\, we will be walking over mostly uneven grassy terrain and cobblestones. \n \n \n

SUMMARY:Step Back in Time at Jerusalem Mill
DESCRIPTION:Discover the rich history of Jerusalem Mill Village\, once a thriving commercial mill that connected rural Maryland to the world. At its peak\, Lee’s Mill produced 20 barrels of flour daily\, including the renowned “White Silk Flour\,” filtered through silk for unmatched purity. This flour became a staple for Baltimore’s Jewish community\, who ensured its kosher standards by observing the milling process. From here\, barrels of flour traveled down the Little Gunpowder Falls to Baltimore’s port\, reaching markets across the globe. \nAs you explore the village\, you’ll hear fascinating tales of resilience and rebellion—from an 1864 Confederate raid led by Major Harry Gilmor to the incredible treks of Samuel O. McCourtney\, who walked 18 miles to Baltimore and back well into his 80s. This is a walking and standing tour\, with some buildings lacking modern heating or cooling\, so dress accordingly. A portion of your registration fee supports the preservation and restoration of this historic site. Reserve your spot today! \nA portion of the proceeds will be going to the conservation work at the Mill.

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!”

SUMMARY:Steel\, Glass\, Plants and History: Behind the Scenes at the Howard P. Rawlings Conservatory
DESCRIPTION:Established in 1888 as the Druid Hill Conservatory and modeled after London’s famous Kew Gardens\, today’s Howard P. Rawlings Conservatory & Botanic Gardens has grown from its original Palm House and Orchid Room to include three greenhouses\, two display pavilions\, and outdoor gardens. Join us as we stroll through the second oldest steel framed\, glass building in the country to learn about its history and its botanical collection.  \nThe idea for a conservatory in Baltimore began in 1874 when the city’s park commissioners directed architect George A. Frederick to design and make plans for new botanic building. Frederick formed a conservatory committee and sent one of its members to Kew Gardens in London\, which became the model for the new design. It took over a decade to take hold\, but eventually in 1888 the first structure of iron\, glass and wood opened as the Palm House. \nMore recently\, the Conservatory closed for two years in the early 2000s for major renovations. Upon reopening to the public in 2004\, the new complex included a refurbished Palm House as well as a Mediterranean House\, a Tropical House and a Desert House. With a new name to honor Delegate Howard Peters Rawlings\, the 116-year-old Conservatory now has wonderful space for its collections that match its storied history.  \nHalf of the proceeds will be going to the Conservatory.

SUMMARY:Historic Clifton Mansion
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a tour inside Clifton Mansion\, the unique Italianate country house that has overlooked Baltimore City for over 200 years! At one time the summer home of War of 1812 captain Henry Thompson and then philanthropist Johns Hopkins\, the story of Clifton Estate is one about two prominent businessmen\, enslaved & free Black people\, and more. You’ll see the latest restorations made possible by the Friends of Clifton Mansion and Civic Works. You will also be invited into unrestored spaces that are brimming with stories to tell!

SUMMARY:LGBTQ Heritage in Charles Village
DESCRIPTION:Join us on a LGBTQ Heritage walking tour of Charles Village! You may know this neighborhood for its colorful “painted ladies\,” but it was also home to many activists and institutions at the heart of the city’s LGBTQ community in the 1970s and 1980s. Our wonderful guides will take us on a walk past local landmarks from the original home of the Gay Community Center of Baltimore\, now the GLCCB\, to the St. Paul Street church that supported the growth of the Metropolitan Community Church\, Baltimore’s oldest LGBTQ religious organization\, and the radical feminist writers and publishers that gave a voice to lesbian authors who might not otherwise have been read. We hope you’ll join us to celebrate the incredible community that called Charles Village its home.

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). \nWe hope to see you there!

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!”

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!

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:Up into the Clockworks at the Bromo Seltzer Tower
DESCRIPTION:Always one for flamboyance\, Captain Isaac Emerson came back from a trip to Italy and decided he wanted to build a new factory in downtown Baltimore and that it should look like Florence’s fabulous town hall\, the Palazzo Vecchio. Completed in 1911\, the tower’s four clocks each measure 24 feet across\, a foot more London’s Big Ben\, and the tower itself was the tallest building in Baltimore at the time. Emerson\, the man who became wealthy from his invention of Bromo Seltzer and gave us the slogan “if you keep late hours for society’s sake\, Bromo Seltzer will cure that headache\,” was quite proud.  \nOur tour through the building will include a trip up into the clockworks at the top to look at the tick-tock operation in process and peer out the translucent windows. We’ll also stop in at the museum room that holds the world’s largest collection ephemera from Captain Emerson\, Bromo Seltzer\, and Maryland Glass. And along the way\, we’ll get a taste of the newest art that comes from the Tower’s artists: it is now home to dozens of local art studios. If you’ve wondered what goes on in the Bromo Seltzer Tower and how the imposing clocks actually work\, now’s your chance!

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!”
