SUMMARY:From Pianos to Pigskins: Ravens Stadium Then and Now
DESCRIPTION:The Baltimore Ravens were one of the hottest teams in the NFL this season\, so what better time to join us at M&T Bank Stadium for a behind-the-scenes tour of their home? We’ll take in the whole building from the suite-level to the locker-rooms. And\, because we are Baltimore Heritage and have more than a little history bent\, we’ll learn about the history of the site\, including German immigrant William Knabe’s enormous piano factory that was once there.  \nKnabe Piano started in Baltimore in 1837 and located where the stadium now sits in 1869. The company sold pianos to luminaries like Francis Scott Key. When Carnegie Hall opened in New York on May 5\, 1891\, Knabe family sponsored Russian composer Peter Tchaikovsky (think Swan Lake among other pieces) to conduct the opening concert. Who would have predicted that 129 years later\, the Baltimore Ravens would have an opera-singing kicker (Justin Tucker) performing at the same spot where Knabe made grand pianos for the country’s opera houses? Join us for this touchdown tour to talk about both football players and piano players.  \nThere will be free parking in a surface lot at the stadium next to the tour starting point.

SUMMARY:Baltimore’s Civil Rights Heritage: Shaping the National Movement
DESCRIPTION:Featuring special guest\, Reverend Al Hathaway from Union Baptist Church! \nBaltimore’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. \nCan’t make this talk? Catch the same one at two other Pratt Library branches: Brooklyn (February 20) and Southeast (February 25)

SUMMARY:The Caffeinated City: A Tour of Zeke’s Coffee Roastery and Baltimore’s Coffee History
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Rhodes sold his first pound of coffee at the Baltimore Farmers’ Market in November 2005 using a newly acquired one-pound coffee roaster. In doing so\, Mr. Rhodes’ new business\, Zeke’s Coffee\, joined a long line of coffee connoisseurs in Baltimore. The line includes Alex. Brown and Sons\, the nation’s first investment bank\, which imported so much coffee that it became the firm’s main source of revenue by the late 19th century. The line also includes Mr. Deaver Y. Smith Sr.\, who in 1906 established Smith Punch Base Coffee and Tea Company\, the third black-owned business in the 1400 block of Pennsylvania Avenue that operated for 65 years. \nToday\, Zeke’s is still family owned and now operates in three cities using its unique roasting process where a fountain of beans is continuously agitated by a stream of hot air. Join us for an espresso-ily energizing tour of Zeke’s Coffee as we talk about Baltimore’s history of coffee and learn about the art of coffee roasting.

SUMMARY:Up into the Clockworks at the Bromo Seltzer Tower
DESCRIPTION:This event is sold out. We are working on adding more tours. Please check back for additional information. Thank you! \n\nAlways one for flamboyance\, Captain Isaac Emerson came back from a trip to Italy and decided he wanted to build a new factory in downtown Baltimore and that it should look like Florence’s fabulous town hall\, the Palazzo Vecchio. Completed in 1911\, the tower’s four clocks each measure 24 feet across\, a foot more London’s Big Ben\, and the tower itself was the tallest building in Baltimore at the time. Emerson\, the man who became wealthy from his invention of Bromo Seltzer and gave us the slogan “if you keep late hours for society’s sake\, Bromo Seltzer will cure that headache\,” was quite proud. \nOur tour through the building will include a trip up the ships stairs into the clockworks at the top to look at the tick-tock operation in process and peer out the translucent windows. We’ll also stop in at the museum room that holds the world’s largest collection ephemera from Captain Emerson\, Bromo Seltzer\, and Maryland Glass. And along the way\, we’ll get a taste of the newest art that comes from the Tower’s artists: it is now home to dozens of local art studios. If you’ve wondered what goes on in the Bromo Seltzer Tower and how the imposing clocks actually work\, now’s your chance!

SUMMARY:Reading a Renovation: A Tour of the Pratt’s Updated Central Library with Architect Sandra Vicchio
DESCRIPTION:This event is sold out. We are working on adding more tours. Please check back for additional information. Thank you! \n\nAfter three years of construction\, the $115 million renovation project at the Pratt Central Library is complete and the work is stunning. Join us as we get to tour the library and learn about its restoration with the project’s consulting architect\, Sandra Vicchio. \nIn 1882\, Enoch Pratt gave a whopping $1 million gift to Baltimore City to launch the nation’s first free library system\, proclaiming\, “My library shall be for all\, rich and poor without distinction of race or color.” Today\, the 1933 Central Library serves more than half a million people each year and with the newly completed whole-building restoration campaign\, will now do so in gorgeously restored spaces. Carpenters removed dropped ceilings to reveal fabulous stenciling\, artists restored decorative molding that was damaged in prior renovations\, and lighting experts created new lighting that is historically appropriate and makes the rooms feel light and airy. Whether you last visited the Central Library a week ago or a decade ago\, we hope you can join us and Ms. Vicchio to learn about (and gawk at) our newly restored piece of civic pride.

SUMMARY:The Woman's Hour: The Great Fight to Win the Vote with Author Elaine Weiss
DESCRIPTION:Nashville\, August 1920: Thirty-five states have ratified the Nineteenth Amendment\, twelve have rejected or refused to vote\, and one last state is needed. It all comes down to Tennessee\, the moment of truth for the suffragists\, after a seven-decade crusade. Join us as author Elaine Weiss discusses her new book “The Woman’s Hour: The Great Fight to Win the Vote” where she tells the story of activists winning their own freedom in one of the last campaigns forged in the shadow of the Civil War\, and the beginning of the great twentieth-century battles for civil rights.  \nIn her book\, Ms. Weiss describes the opposing forces in the fight for women’s suffrage\, including politicians with careers at stake\, liquor companies\, railroad magnates\, and racists who didn’t want black women voting. Woodrow Wilson\, Warren Harding\, Frederick Douglass\, and Eleanor Roosevelt also play important roles in this story replete with dirty tricks\, betrayals and bribes\, bigotry\, Jack Daniel’s\, and the Bible. \nThis talk is a partnership between Baltimore Heritage and the Garrett-Jacobs Mansion. This program and our speaker series have been funded by Mayor Bernard C. “Jack” Young and the Baltimore Office of Promotion and the Arts.

SUMMARY:Mount Vernon Place and the Washington Monument: Monumental City Tour

SUMMARY:Psychedelics\, Traitors and Treatments: The Unexpected Past of Spring Grove Hospital Center
DESCRIPTION:Timothy 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:Catacombs\, 100-Year Vendors and History at Lexington Market
DESCRIPTION:Begun 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\, Konstant’s Candy\, 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!

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.  \n
