SUMMARY:Celebrate Pride! LGBTQ Heritage in Charles Village
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate Pride Month with 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. Guides Richard Oloizia\, Louis Hughes and Kate Drabinski 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 LGBT 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 Pride and the incredible community that called Charles Village its home.

SUMMARY:History from the Middle of the Street: A Walking Tour for the Charles Street Promenade

On Saturday\, June 3\, only pedestrians and bicycles will be allowed on a good portion of Charles Street between Saratoga and North Avenue as part of the Charles Street Promenade.

We’ll talk about some of Maryland’s oldest churches\, take in architecture from Colonial Revival to Brutalist\, and share stories from the founding of American philanthropy to the role rye whisky played in shaping more than a few beloved institutions…all from the middle of the street! \nWhat is Charles St Promenade?

SUMMARY:Out of the Ashes: The Great Baltimore Fire of 1904
DESCRIPTION:In 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 on this walking tour 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:Baltimore’s Marble Hill: How A Neighborhood Shaped the Civil Rights Movement
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a guided tour of Baltimore’s Marble Hill neighborhood\, which was the home to an astonishing amount of groundbreaking Civil Rights leaders. Reverend Harvey Johnson began one of the first collective action movements here in the 1880s. In the 1930s Lillie Carroll Jackson engaged youth in “The Movement” and pioneered new non-violent protest tactics that were later picked up in cities across the country. Thurgood Marshall grew up here\, as did the chief lobbyist for the 1964 Civil Rights Act\, Clarence Mitchell. Most recently this was the district for the late Representative Elijah Cummings\, one of the most powerful voices for civil rights in Washington. Join us to learn how fundamental pillars of the Civil Rights Movement got built here by driven\, activist neighbors with their eyes on the prize.

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!”
