The Bromo Art Walk may be behind us, but the momentum isn't stopping!

We're keeping that spotlight shining on our Bromo artists with Baltimore Open Studio Tour Weekend, October 10 & 11, 10 AM–5 PM.

This time, slow down and go deeper: full days, working studios, and one-on-one time with the makers behind the work.

Inside the Bromo Seltzer Arts Tower, you'll find:
📸 Jim Conyers — headshot & branding photographer capturing Baltimore's people at their most authentic

🌿 Rejjia Camphor — transdisciplinary artist, writer, and organizer whose work explores Black girlhood, ecology, memory, and healing

🧵 Sheila Crider — self-taught fiber and textile artist known for "Blackstraction," her signature take on abstract art through wall hangings and collage

And just down the street in our district, don't miss:
🎭 Bryan Robinson at The Black Genius Art Show — live drawing, wearable art, and a decade of bold, original Baltimore creativity

If Art Walk gave you a taste, this is your chance to come back, explore the studios, and really sit with the work.

Calling our youth-serving arts & culture partners!

The 2027 Scholastic Art & Writing Awards open for entries on October 1! If your organization works with teens in grades 7–12, this is one of the most respected creative recognition programs in the country and it's been discovering young talent since 1923.

Beyond the recognition, this is a real pathway to scholarship dollars. Winners can be eligible for awards ranging from $500 Best-in-Grade scholarships and up to $12,500 Portfolio Scholarships for graduating seniors. For teens juggling college costs, that's not just a certificate — that's tuition support.

Want to learn more before you dive in? The Scholastic Awards team is hosting a free webinar series this fall — perfect whether you're new to the program or just want a refresher. Head to the link in our bio for dates.

If your program works with creative teens, this is worth putting in front of them. Let's help Baltimore's next generation of artists and writers get seen — and get paid for it.

From September’s underground history tours to a full weekend celebrating Edgar Allan Poe, there are plenty of ways to experience the darker side of Baltimore.

From October 2–4, Poe Fest International returns to the Edgar Allan Poe House & Museum for a free, family-friendly celebration of Poe’s life, work, and lasting influence on the arts. Expect Poe-inspired performances, art, vendors, booksellers, food, and more as Baltimore commemorates the 177th anniversary of Poe’s death.

And on Saturday, October 3, Ballet 5:8 brings The Curious Life of Edgar Allan Poe to the Hippodrome at 5 p.m., blending ballet, spoken word, and theatre to tell the story of Poe’s life and writing.

Looking for a different kind of history? On the first Saturday of each month, Westminster Hall offers guided tours of its historic Burying Ground and Catacombs at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.—a chance to explore Baltimore’s past from below ground.

However you choose to experience Poe, there’s no shortage of stories, history, and art waiting to be discovered in Baltimore.

Poe Fest is FREE. Find the full festival schedule at poefestinternational.com/festival-program.
