Finding Eutaw Farm: The Herring Run Archaeology Project (Virtual Talk)

Virtual MD, United States

Join us to learn about how Eutaw Farm was discovered and its role in Baltimore history!

Jason Shellenhamer and Lisa Kraus are the co-directors of the Herring Run Archaeology Project, a free public archaeology program in the City of Baltimore. Jason, Lisa and their team of volunteers have spent the last 6 years exploring the remains of Eutaw Farm, an 18th and 19th century estate located in modern Herring Run Park. The house at Eutaw Farm burned down in 1865, and vanished from memory, but it was never really gone. Join us to learn about how Eutaw Farm was discovered, the roles it played in Baltimore's history, and the fascinating people who once called Eutaw home.

Virtual Talk: Olmsted Brothers Vision for Wyman Park and the Stony Run Stream Valley

Virtual MD, United States

The presentation will focus on the Olmsted vision and what remains today! Wyman Park and the Stony Run Stream Valley demonstrate the premier design work of the Olmsted Brothers from 1903 to 1947. The influential landscape architecture firm was established in 1898 by brothers John Charles Olmsted and Frederick Law Olmsted Jr., sons of the eminent landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted. The Municipal Art Society hired them to produce the City’s first comprehensive park system plan in 1904, the Development of Public Grounds for Greater Baltimore Report. The Wyman family had donated land for Johns Hopkins University in 1902 for use as a northern campus and that same year, the University gave the remainder of the land to the City of Baltimore to serve as a public park.
