On May 11, join us for a walking tour of historic Woodberry with Jones Falls historian Nathan Dennies. Once home to textile mills the largest machine shop and iron works in Maryland, this historic neighborhood's industrial past is largely intact including the original mill village. Discover how the story of Woodberry’s growth is a story of the Industrial Revolution at the local scale. As the factories grew, so did the neighborhood, and many styles of homes for working families can still be seen today. We hope you'll join us for this fabulous tour of historic Woodberry! 

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!”
