SUMMARY:Virtual Tour of the Bromo Seltzer Art Tower
DESCRIPTION:While few remember the slogan of the Emerson Bromo-Seltzer Company—“If you keep late hours for Society’s sake Bromo-Seltzer will cure that headache”—the iconic Bromo-Seltzer Tower has been a Baltimore landmark since its construction in 1911. At fifteen stories\, the tower made the Bromo-Seltzer factory the tallest building in the city. The tower boasted a four-dial gravity clock that was the largest in the world (bigger\, even\, than London’s Big Ben) and was topped by a 51-foot revolving replica of the blue Bromo-Seltzer bottle\, which was illuminated with 596 lights and could be seen 20 miles away. Due to structural concerns\, the bottle was removed in 1936. The iconic design immediately secured the tower’s spot as a favorite of city residents and visitors alike. The tower was designed by Joseph Evans Sperry and built by Captain Isaac Emerson. \nAlso inside the Tower is the Emerson/Maryland Glass Museum which houses the largest collection of Bromo Seltzer and Maryland Glass bottles in existence. The Museum is on the 15th floor and is on loan from and curated by Ernest Dimler. \nSince 2007 our studios have offered a creative space for a variety of artists\, writers\, photographers\, architects\, jewelers and more from all walks. \nTheir artistic skills gleaned from all over the world and some from our own cherished local prestigious arts institutions as well as self-taught. More than just a space to create\, our artists enjoy interacting with guests to the tower\, showcasing their work in their studios and in the common areas throughout the building. \nAlso inside the Tower is the Emerson/Maryland Glass Museum which houses the largest collection of Bromo Seltzer and Maryland Glass bottles in existence. The Museum is on the 15th floor and is on loan from and curated by Ernest Dimler. \nDirector Annie Applegarth and Curator Ernie Dimler will be your hosts and guides \nThis program is hosted on Zoom and Facebook Live.

SUMMARY:“Life Goes On:” The Legacy of Henrietta Lacks and Turner Station
DESCRIPTION:Don’t know who Henrietta Lacks was? Most of the world didn’t until about ten years ago. Mrs. Lacks is best recognized for her immortal cells\, which scientists and doctors still use today to study the effects of toxins\, drugs\, hormones and viruses on people without experimenting on humans. Her cells helped create the HPV and polio vaccines. Yet it took some twenty-five years before the Lacks family received any knowledge of the important contribution of their beloved wife and mother. Please join us and the Henrietta Lacks Legacy Group for a walking tour of Turner Station in Dundalk\, the last home of Henrietta Lacks\, to hear about Henrietta\, her family\, and her life in Turner Station. \nIn 1951\, Mrs. Lacks went to Johns Hopkins Hospital for treatment of cervical cancer. Without informing Mrs. Lacks\, Hopkins doctors noticed that the removed cancer cells continued to grow in the lab. This marked the first instance of continuous growth of human cells outside the body. Henrietta died on October 4\, 1951 from her cancer. She was 31 years old. \nDoctors named her cells HeLa (from the first letters of her first and last names) and\, without Lacks family approval\, began sending them to laboratories around the world for research. Mrs. Lacks’ story weaves together important ethical and racial issues of the medical industrial complex\, segregation\, and the polarized economy of Baltimore. We are honored to be partnering with the Henrietta Lacks Legacy Group for this tour. Join guide Servant Speed as we walk through Henrietta’s Turner Station community and learn about her incredible story. \nDue to Covid precautions\, we are limiting space more than usual. All participants will be required to wear face masks and socially distance during the tour. \n  \nWant to learn more about Henrietta Lacks?  \nThe Double-Edged Helix” in Rolling Stone Magazine\n“The Miracle of HeLa” in Ebony Magazine\nThe Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot

SUMMARY:Federal Hill Beyond the Views: A Monumental City Tour
DESCRIPTION:Baltimoreans celebrated atop Federal Hill when we ratified the U.S. Constitution. We used it to defend the city from the British in the War of 1812 and to make sure we stayed in the Union in the Civil War. We have even tunnelled under it to quarry minerals. Join us on a tour of Federal Hill and the neighborhood around it to learn about this waterfront community’s rich history\, including stops at one of the last wooden houses in the city\, the oldest house in Federal Hill\, and the wonderful alley houses along Churchill Street.   \nDue to Covid precautions\, we are limiting space more than usual. All participants will be required to wear face masks and socially distance during the tour.\n \nOur Monumental City tours are guided walks exploring iconic Baltimore landmarks in Federal Hill\, Downtown\, and Ridgely’s Delight on the first three Sundays of each month from May through November\, except holiday weekends.

DESCRIPTION:Old St. Paul’s Cemetery’s list of the interred reads like the Who’s Who of the War of 1812 – Samuel Chase\, George Armistead\, John Eager Howard to name a few.

Founded around 1799\, Old St. Paul’s is one of the oldest cemeteries in Baltimore City and is on the registry of National Historic Places. Not regularly open to the public\, come with us to peek behind its large stone walls and see the final resting places of those who helped shape this city.  \nDue to Covid precautions\, we are limiting space more than usual.
