  American Visionary Art Museum

  One of the coolest, most distinctive museums you’ll ever encounter–really impossible to describe. A Baltimore-based national museum exhibiting a special brand of art as unique, colorful, fascinating, whimsical, inspiring and disturbing as our most hidden fantasies-turned-outward and, indeed, as Baltimore itself! Exhibits the visionary artwork of self-taught, “outsider” artists, generally organized under unique (from the inspired to bizarre, depending on your viewpoint) themes and often a dazzling display of color, material and design. Summaries of the artists’ life histories, also on display, are often nearly as fascinating as the art they create.

  Also hosts various “visionary” events throughout the year, including a summer film festival on Federal Hill; also has a great gift shop & restaurant with a “visionary” view onto the Inner Harbor.

  FALLS INTO WORDS

  http://www.gwynnsfallstrail.org/news/FIWIntro.cfm

  A Folklore Collection Project

  FALLS INTO WORDS is a new and dynamic Gwynns Falls Trail Council project to collect stories, poems, songs, and photographs by area residents that help to enrich the experience of the Trail and explain the connection that people have toward the Gwynns Falls as a natural resource. We want you to tell your stories about the past, present and future of the stream valley, its neighborhoods, parks, and people. What is the history of the people who lived and worked along in the stream valley, how does the Trail help to connect people to this natural resource, and what can we learn about the use, conservation and preservation of this resource for the future? We are collecting material you wish to offer about your personal connection to the Gwynns Falls. The written materials and photographs collected may be used by the Trail Council in publications, guided tours, and audio recording on this website. This project is supported in part by the Chesapeake Bay Gateways Network.

  If you want to participate, see click STORY GUIDELINES. To read some of our collected stories, click TELL ME A STORY.

  The Baltimore Women’s Film Festival is dedicated to showcasing the best independent cinema by women (and for women). The festival screens documentaries, features, short films, music videos, animation and experimental film.

  The festival takes place during October (breast cancer month) and donates half of all ticket proceeds to breast cancer research and patient support for local women. Last year the festival also included an art exhibit by breast cancer survivors and their caregivers.
