SUMMARY:Catacombs\, 100-Year Vendors and History at Lexington Market
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nBegun in the early 1800s on land donated by John Eager Howard\, Baltimore’s iconic Lexington Market holds the title as the oldest market in America. Ralph Waldo Emerson also dubbed it “the gastronomic capital of the world.” \nDuring the tour\, we will visit Faidley’s\, Berger’s\, and other vendors that have been in their stall for a century or more. We will also explore the catacombs under the marketplace. Rediscovered in 1951 during the construction of a parking garage\, the origins of these tunnels and vaults are mysterious. Were they used for cold storage before refrigeration? Did they house distilleries during Prohibition? We may not get the definitive answer\, but we’ll at least get a first-hand look at these spaces that are normally closed to the public. \nBe sure to bring your canvas bags to do some quintessential Baltimore shopping afterward. And while 10:30 am may seem early for a Saturday morning\, at least we’re not lining up when the historic starting bell would ring in the new market day at 2:00 am!

SUMMARY:Stone and Spirit: The Original Campus of Goucher College
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nWhile Rev. John Goucher was overseeing the building of today’s Lovely Lane United Methodist Church in the mid-1880s\, he was also helping establish a college for women to give them “equal advantages in the business of life.” Founded in 1885 as the Woman’s College of Baltimore City (“City” was dropped in 1890)\, it began with a few stone buildings and the spirit to become one of the leading institutions of higher education in the country. The College expanded its campus from 22nd to 24th Streets\, and from Calvert Street to Maryland Avenue to eventually include twenty-six buildings for academics\, physical training\, student life\, and presidents’ homes. In 1910\, the name was changed to Goucher College to honor John and Mary Goucher. \nBy the second decade of the 20th century\, increased traffic and restrictions on expansion led the College to purchase land in Towson in 1921 to create a more open environment for its growing student body. Construction was delayed until the early 1940s\, and Goucher maintained two campuses until its final move in 1954\, after selling its downtown buildings to various individuals and organizations.  \nJoin Marilyn Warshawsky\, author of John Franklin Goucher: Citizen of the World and a trustee emerita of the College\, at Lovely Lane for a tour of this historic church\, a presentation of archival photos of original college buildings\, and a walking tour of the campus that is now part of the diverse community known as Old Goucher.  \n  \nExplore all five of our spring Baltimore by Foot walking tours!

SUMMARY:Old St. Paul’s Cemetery Tour: A Peek Behind the Stone Walls
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nOld 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.

SUMMARY:Out of the Ashes: The Great Baltimore Fire of 1904
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nIn February 1904\, Baltimore’s chief firefighter cabled Washington DC: “Desperate fire here. Must have help at once!” A tremendous fire was sweeping through downtown and showed little signs of stopping. Not until 5:00 p.m. the next day was the fire brought under control. Overall\, it destroyed 1500 buildings\, left 35\,000 people unemployed\, and damaged $150 million of property. Resilient Baltimore rebounded quickly\, erecting new buildings\, widening streets\, and improving fire safety designs. Rising out of the ashes\, Baltimore used the fire to rethink the city\, and the downtown we know today is shaped largely by this incident. Join us as we see what 2500 degrees Fahrenheit heat can do to blocks of solid stone\, learn how the fire shaped architecture locally and across the country\, and hear the tale of one of the fire’s great heroes: Goliath the horse.  \nOur Monumental City tours are guided walks exploring iconic Baltimore landmarks in Downtown\, Ridgely’s Delight\, Mount Vernon and Federal Hill on the first four Sundays of each month from April through November\, except holiday weekends.

SUMMARY:How to Read a Rowhouse: Colonial Architecture in Fell’s Point

SUMMARY:The Catacombs Under Westminster: Two Hundred Years of Tombs and Edgar Allan Poe’s Gravesite
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nJoin 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:Catacombs\, 100-Year Vendors and History at Lexington Market
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nBegun in the early 1800s on land donated by John Eager Howard\, Baltimore’s iconic Lexington Market holds the title as the oldest market in America. Ralph Waldo Emerson also dubbed it “the gastronomic capital of the world.” \nDuring the tour\, we will visit Faidley’s\, Berger’s\, and other vendors that have been in their stall for a century or more. We will also explore the catacombs under the marketplace. Rediscovered in 1951 during the construction of a parking garage\, the origins of these tunnels and vaults are mysterious. Were they used for cold storage before refrigeration? Did they house distilleries during Prohibition? We may not get the definitive answer\, but we’ll at least get a first-hand look at these spaces that are normally closed to the public. \nBe sure to bring your canvas bags to do some quintessential Baltimore shopping afterward. And while 10:30 am may seem early for a Saturday morning\, at least we’re not lining up when the historic starting bell would ring in the new market day at 2:00 am!

SUMMARY:Laurel Cemetery Memorial Project Talk at Providence Baptist Church
DESCRIPTION:We are happy to help the Laurel Cemetery Memorial Task Force spread the news about their upcoming black history lecture. The task force is endeavoring to erect a permanent memorial in recognition of the thousands of African Americans interred at Historic Laurel Cemetery\, to ensure the safety and stability of the site into the foreseeable future\, and to educate the public about the rich history of the cemetery and the lives of those buried there. \nLaurel 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\, members of the United States Colored Troops (U.S.C.T.) and notables such as Civil Rights activist Reverend Harvey Johnson. \nIn 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 have no knowledge of the site’s former purpose and significance. Join us to learn more about the important history of the site and how we can preserve its memory.

SUMMARY:New Light on Hidden Lives: A Talk on Discovering the Histories of Hampton's Enslaved Workers
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nIn 1790\, the Ridgely family’s Hampton Mansion was the largest house in the United States. Who worked to keep this enormous estate running efficiently? Who labored in the surrounding gardens and\, a little farther away\, in the lucrative\, but treacherous iron furnaces? Although the Ridgely family hired indentured servants and free blacks\, the estate depended on slave labor for over 100 years\, ending only when Maryland State law ended the institution in 1864. The Ridgely’s owned over 500 enslaved people during that period.   \nGregory Weidman\, Curator\, Hampton National Historic Site\, will present a lecture based on her recent research as a member of the Hampton Ethnographic Team that worked for three years to uncover and document the lives and families of those enslaved on the Hampton estate. Her presentation will showcase the broad range of historic sources that were used to explore the personal stories of these individuals\, documenting their lives both before and after freedom\, including identifying their family groups and the lives of descendants. We hope you will join us to hear the important stories of the people enslaved at Hampton Mansion.

SUMMARY:Out of the Ashes: The Great Baltimore Fire of 1904
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nIn February 1904\, Baltimore’s chief firefighter cabled Washington DC: “Desperate fire here. Must have help at once!” A tremendous fire was sweeping through downtown and showed little signs of stopping. Not until 5:00 p.m. the next day was the fire brought under control. Overall\, it destroyed 1500 buildings\, left 35\,000 people unemployed\, and damaged $150 million of property. Resilient Baltimore rebounded quickly\, erecting new buildings\, widening streets\, and improving fire safety designs. Rising out of the ashes\, Baltimore used the fire to rethink the city\, and the downtown we know today is shaped largely by this incident. Join us as we see what 2500 degrees Fahrenheit of heat can do to blocks of solid stone\, learn how the fire shaped architecture locally and across the country\, and hear the tale of one of the fire’s great heroes: Goliath the horse.  \nOur Monumental City tours are guided walks exploring iconic Baltimore landmarks in Downtown\, Ridgely’s Delight\, Mount Vernon and Federal Hill on the first four Sundays of each month from April through November\, except holiday weekends.

SUMMARY:The Catacombs Under Westminster: Two Hundred Years of Tombs and Edgar Allan Poe’s Gravesite
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nJoin 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:Psychedelics\, Traitors and Treatments: The Unexpected Past of Spring Grove Hospital Center
DESCRIPTION:Event Canceled \n\nTimothy Leary’s got nothing on Baltimore! Join us for a walk around the Spring Grove Hospital Center campus to see this partially abandoned historic facility where\, among other things\, the first and longest government-run psychedelic drug research program took place. Here\, scientists tested LSD and other chemicals as potential treatments for psychiatric illnesses until national controversy caught up with everybody and the research was shut down in 1976. \nSpring Grove has a history far deeper than the experimental 1960s. Founded in 1797\, it is the second oldest continuously operating psychiatric hospital in the country. Before the Civil War\, free and enslaved African Americans were also patients here. Later it became a whites-only facility. Today\, Spring Grove treats around 300 patients\, a fraction of its 1960 population. And there is again a psychiatric illness research facility in the same building where the LSD experiments once occurred. \nOn our tour\, we’ll see the remnants of the oldest building on campus\, industrial structures from the 1930s\, plus a barely noticeable cemetery. Join us and our guide Paul Lubell as we walk through three centuries of history that weaves together tales of yellow fever epidemics\, Confederate traitors\, and psychedelic scandal. Groovy.

SUMMARY:Destination Baltimore: A Talk on the Story of Immigration and Opportunity
DESCRIPTION:Event Cancelled \n\nFor more than two centuries and for almost two million people\, Baltimore was the destination that promised hope and opportunity–a new life. In this talk\, historian Jack Burkert will discuss the realities of immigrating to America. Beginning in the 18th century\, and accelerating through the 19th century\, immigrants provided the labor force necessary for Baltimore to become an industrial powerhouse. They built critical infrastructure\, created steel in mills\, and assembled garments in Baltimore’s burgeoning manufacturing world. New arrivals would congregate in neighborhoods where friends and relatives lived and the language was familiar. In these enclaves\, everyday customs from their home countries persisted and flourished.  \nThroughout the 20th century\, new arrivals from other parts of America continued to fuel Baltimore’s growth. The Great Migration and the Hillbilly Migration added to Baltimore’s dynamic heritage. Who were these people? Where were they from? Why did they leave home? We hope you’ll join us to explore these questions and more at this lecture!

SUMMARY:From Farmstead Settlement to Booming Suburb: A Walking Tour of Historic Towson
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that Divine of John Waters movie fame was born and buried in Towson? Join Towson’s own history buff\, Ms. Brenda Carl\, for a look back at the town’s wonderful history and notable characters. We’ll start at the pre-Civil War Towson Courthouse and learn how the two Towson brothers from Pennsylvania came down the York Turnpike in the 1700’s to start the town that’s named for them. We’ll also visit the site of the original Towson Hotel\, where farmers stopped over before continuing on to Baltimore to sell their goods. We hope you’ll join us to discover how places like Prospect Hill Cemetery\, Loch Raven Reservoir\, and East Towson\, founded by African Americans formerly enslaved at Hampton Mansion\, helped make Towson into the bustling college town it is today.

SUMMARY:Serving from Above: A Tour of the Maryland State Police Aviation Command
DESCRIPTION:Since 1784\, when 13-year-old Edward Warren became the first American to ascend in a hot air balloon above Baltimore\, Maryland has been a leader in flight. The Maryland State Police has been serving the state from above since 1954 when it acquired its first aircraft\, a donated\, two-seat\, radio-equipped airplane. On March 19\, 1970\, the command performed the first civilian medevac transport of an injured patient from a crash that occurred on the Baltimore Beltway to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center. Never before had a civilian agency transported a critically injured trauma patient by helicopter in a non-military setting. From hot air balloons to civilian helicopter medevacs\, Baltimore has been a city of aviation firsts.  \nSince the 1970s\, the Maryland State Police Aviation Command has transported over 150\,000 patients. And its duties have grown to include law enforcement and homeland security support\, search and rescue\, aerial rescue and disaster assessment. We hope you will join us for this incredible behind-the-scenes tour led by some of Maryland’s own State Police pilots and medics. We’ll see you in the hangar!

SUMMARY:Baltimore’s Civil Rights Heritage: Shaping the National Movement
DESCRIPTION:Baltimore’s airport is named after Civil Rights giant Thurgood Marshall\, and plaques in Fell’s Point show where Frederick Douglass took his stand against slavery and for equality. In addition to these well-known leaders\, dozens of other Baltimoreans committed themselves to struggle for Civil Rights and helped shape The Movement locally and nationally. Reverend Harvey Johnson worked from Union Baptist Church on Druid Hill Avenue to create some of the first Civil Rights organizations in the country as early as the 1880s. Lillie Carroll Jackson\, who headed Baltimore’s branch of the NAACP for 50 years\, pioneered non-violent protest tactics that engaged young people. Clarence Mitchell led the NAACPs efforts to pass ground-breaking Civil Rights legislation in Congress in the 1960s. Baltimore Heritage has spent three years documenting Baltimore’s Civil Rights legacy for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Join the organization’s executive director\, Mr. Johns Hopkins\, to learn more of how Baltimore has shaped the Civil Rights Movement for over 100 years. \n  \nCan’t make this talk?

Lillie Carroll Jackson\, who headed Baltimore’s branch of the NAACP for 50 years\, pioneered non-violent protest tactics that engaged young people. Clarence Mitchell led the NAACPs efforts to pass ground-breaking Civil Rights legislation in Congress in the 1960s. Baltimore Heritage has spent three years documenting Baltimore’s Civil Rights legacy for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Join the organization’s executive director\, Mr. Johns Hopkins\, to learn more of how Baltimore has shaped the Civil Rights Movement for over 100 years. \nCan’t make this talk?
