On April 24, join us for the first tour of our new series, Light City Baltimore, to experience our city in the evening and in a brand new light! This tour will take us back to the Great 1904 Fire, which destroyed 1500 buildings, left 35,000 people unemployed, and damaged $150 million of property. Rising out of the ashes, resilient Baltimore used the fire to rethink the city, and the downtown we know today is shaped largely by this incident. Join Baltimore Heritage’s Executive Director Johns Hopkins on this special evening tour, and make it a Baltimore night–grab dinner at Kechy Pizza or The Empanada Lady, then catch a show at the Chesapeake Shakespeare Theater! 

On May 8, come see the lights of downtown Baltimore from the water on an evening boat cruise in our new series Light City Baltimore. We hope you will join us to discover America’s history on Baltimore’s water as the sun sets. Enjoy a drink as you listen to a live-narrated 90-min tour by Baltimore Heritage Executive Director Johns Hopkins and marvel at how the Domino Sugars sign glows from the water! This tour is in partnership with Watermark Journeys. The boat has a cash bar and a bathroom.
