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: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! And the tour wouldn’t be complete without climbing the tower and taking in one-of-a-kind views of Clifton Park and our surrounding city. We hope to see you there.

SUMMARY:The New Lexington Market & Exploring the Neighborhood Around It with Mr. Johns Hopkins
DESCRIPTION:For over 200 years\, Lexington Market’s wooden sheds and concrete stalls have been a gathering place for Baltimoreans. And the market is still evolving! In October 2022\, the new Lexington Market opened in a brand new building. On this tour led by Baltimore Heritage’s Executive Director Johns Hopkins\, we’ll first explore the area immediately surrounding the market to discover how Baltimore emerged as a leading industrial and economic city in the 19th century. Immigration\, slavery\, commerce and major changes in transportation were all part of the mix here in Baltimore and the country as a whole. We’ll see the original wagon curbstones with their vendor stall numbers and discuss underground tunnels. We’ll end at the new market to see its wonderful public art and\, of course\, its merchants (new and old). Please join us and make Lexington Market a part of your holidays. Be sure to bring your canvas bags to do some quintessential Baltimore shopping after the tour! \n  \n  \n

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.

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:Laurel Cemetery Voluntour: Trash Clean-up and History Tour
DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn about one of Baltimore’s most important\, and forgotten cemeteries\, and help clean it up as you learn! Laurel Cemetery was incorporated in 1852 as Baltimore’s first nondenominational cemetery for African Americans. It quickly became a popular place of burial for people across Black Baltimore’s socioeconomic spectrum\, including 230 Black Civil War veterans and notables such as Civil Rights activist Reverend Harvey Johnson. In 1958 and after a series of lawsuits failed to prevail in the courts\, Laurel Cemetery was leveled. Today it is the site of the Belair-Edison Crossing Shopping Center\, and home to several businesses. However\, many current patrons and nearby residents are unaware of the site’s former purpose and significance.

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). \nWe hope to see you there!

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:Patterson Park
DESCRIPTION:Join us to walk through Patterson Park and through time starting back when it was officially created in 1827. During the War of 1812\, the park saw action defending Baltimore. And during the Civil War\, troops here made sure Maryland didn’t secede from the Union. The park has been used for strolling\, fishing\, hockey\, swimming\, festivals and even as a beef market. Over its 198-year history\, it has grown from 6 acres to 137 acres\, partially thanks to the famous Olmsted Firm. Discover the history of Patterson Park\, which is in many ways the story of Baltimore itself\, and see how it really is “the best backyard in Baltimore.”

SUMMARY:Druid Ridge Cemetery by Bike
DESCRIPTION:Join Ralph Brown and Phil Briscoe on a bike tour of Druid Ridge Cemetery to see that\, contrary to popular belief\, not all famous Baltimoreans are buried at Green Mount Cemetery! Even 100 years ago\, some people wanted to escape the bad city air and spend eternity in the bucolic hinterlands of the county. How could they have predicted that they would still end up within the confines of the Beltway? Did you ever wonder where the Cone sisters ended up\, or John Goucher\, or Virginia Hall\, or Art Modell?  Maybe you were afraid to visit Druid Ridge Cemetery because of the curse of Black Aggie. There will be a few slight ups and downs on the route but nothing too strenuous. Also—lots of trees and shade!

SUMMARY:Fell's Point
DESCRIPTION:Join us to see how Fell’s Point developed in the 1730s to become one of Baltimore’s premier waterfront communities. Great wealth through trade was created here for the likes of Johns Hopkins\, George Peabody\, and William Walters. These shores were the first place over a million immigrants started their American dream\, yet also where enslaved people either arrived in bondage or were shipped south in chains. As we walk\, we’ll point out historic homes and industrial heritage\, like the country’s first Black-owned shipyard\, and share some of the rich stories that this 300-year-old waterfront neighborhood has to offer.

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:A Walking Tour of East Baltimore’s Historic American Indian “Reservation”
DESCRIPTION:The place now known as Baltimore\, like the rest of what is now known as the United States\, has always been home to Native peoples. Baltimore is part of the ancestral homelands of the Piscataway and the Susquehannock\, and a diverse host of American Indian folks from other nations have passed through or lived here at different times — and still do! In the mid-twentieth century\, thousands of Lumbee Indians and members of other tribal nations migrated to Baltimore City\, seeking jobs and a better quality of life. They settled in Upper Fells Point and Washington Hill and created a vibrant\, intertribal American Indian community\, which they affectionately referred to as “the reservation\,” in its heyday. In the decades since the community has gradually moved away from the area. Recent generations never experienced “the reservation” as such. Today\, most Baltimoreans are surprised to learn that it ever existed. Join historian and artist Ashley Minner Jones to learn about places and spaces important to American Indian history and heritage in the city\, with a focus on East Baltimore’s Historic American Indian “Reservation” in the 20th century.
