  • The Bromo Arts District: A Light City Tour

    Bromo Seltzer Tower 21 S Eutaw St, Baltimore, MD, United States

    As artists for the Fall Bromo Art Walk are throwing open their studio doors, join Baltimore Heritage's Executive Director Johns Hopkins on one of our Light City Baltimore tours to learn how the FBI raided the Everyman Theater building, how we kept the lights on at the Hippodrome, and how Civil Rights protests outside of Baltimore’s Ford’s Theatre helped change segregation policies in the city. In addition to artists, this part of town is packed with quintessentially Baltimore landmarks–we’ll see Lexington Market, the Bromo Seltzer Tower, and some of the few remaining cast iron buildings in the city as they turn the lights on. This tour will occur the same night as the Bromo Art Walk and we encourage you to check out the dozens of open art studios before our tour starts!
