Enjoy All That Baltimore Has to Offer This Fall

By: Ellen Frick, Outreach Coordinator, NHS of Baltimore

Take advantage of the free events in Baltimore this fall. Learn more about the city you live in and have fun! For instance, the recently finished murals at Hollins Market make for an interesting piece of art that is full of history. Make sure to stop by to see the finished community art project.

Baltimore’s Office of Promotion & the Arts, the same people who bring you the Sunday farmer’s market under the Jones Falls Expressway, are putting on Free Fall Baltimore this October. During the next month several museums, events, and workshops across the city will be free. There is even one night this month when the Baltimore Aquarium will be open free of charge to families. Take advantage of these great opportunities this October to explore the places that make Baltimore unique. Check out a list of the events to see if you will need to reserve passes before attending.

Also this fall, Live Baltimore is offering several free workshops that could be of value to current homeowners as well as potential homeowners. Spend an hour or two this fall learning about Baltimore City property taxes or take a class on money saving tips for homebuyers. Though these workshops are free, you must register online to reserve a space.
