Explore Baltimore Heritage 101: Getting Started

Back in December, we announced our plans for a new online course to teach people how to research and write about historic places in Baltimore. After a bit of a winter break, we are launching the class with a series of short lessons on how to conduct research, write stories on local landmarks, create compelling visuals and promote your stories through outreach.

What can you do with local history?

Local history is not just about reading books or attending lectures. Local history is something you can do using skills and concepts that anyone can learn. and doing local history can help you accomplish your goals for yourself, your family or your neighborhood.
