During your Baltimore vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Baltimore Museum of Art
The BMA is famous for its Matisse collection, assembled by Baltimore sisters Claribel and Etta Cone, who went to Paris in the 1920s and came back with a collection of Impressionist and modern art. The $4 million Cone Wing showcases their collection of paintings by Matisse, Cézanne, Gauguin, van Gogh, and Renoir. Visit the special room set up to remember these women: drawers filled with their personal things, pieces of furniture, and a virtual tour of their Baltimore apartments. The largest museum in Maryland, the BMA offers galleries dedicated to modern and contemporary art; European sculpture and painting; American painting and decorative arts; prints and photographs; arts of Africa, Asia, the Americas, and Oceania; and a 2.7-acre sculpture garden with 35 major works by Alexander Calder, Henry Moore, and others. Highlights include the 35,000-square-foot West Wing for Contemporary Art with work by Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns, and Baltimorean Grace Hartigan; early American decorative arts and a gallery of miniature rooms; and European art that includes Impressionist painting by Monet and Degas's "Little Dancer, Age Fourteen." The Jacobs Wing, a collection of 15th- to 19th-century European art, reopened in 2003, beautifully displayed in rich jewel-toned rooms. Younger visitors can borrow the ART+FUN packs to show them museum pieces on their own level as they listen to music or draw themselves. Free First Thursdays is a free event held first Thursdays until 8pm with gallery tours, music, and activities for families. A summer jazz series in the sculpture garden is another delight.
Edgar Allen Poe House
In this tiny west Baltimore house, Edgar Allan Poe wrote some of his first works. Poe lived here from 1833 to 1835 with his grandmother, aunt, and cousin Virginia, whom he later married. The 2 1/2 story rowhouse contains five rooms, including the tiny garret where Poe slept and wrote. There are portraits, Poe memorabilia, period furniture, changing exhibits, and a video presentation. The house is located on a tiny, one-way street heading south. There is no house number, but you will see a black antique street lamp out front and two markers on the house. Don't try to walk here from downtown. Take a car or cab. Definitely call ahead to verify hours.
Maryland Science Center
Three floors of exhibits include the popular Outer Space Place, home of the Hubble Space Telescope National Visitor Center and Space Link, which offers a live connection to NASA. Sometimes the exhibits are too crowded or have limited interest, but the IMAX theater and planetarium are always worth a visit. The IMAX theater presents shows as diverse as Beauty and the Beast and Space Station 3D. IMAX is so popular, extra screenings are available Friday and Saturday evenings for $9 per ticket. A new wing opened in May 2004 with DinoQuest, an exhibit devoted to the study of fossils and the lives of dinosaurs, a health and human body exhibit, plus room for traveling exhibits. The stars are on display at the Davis Planetarium or the Crosby Ramsey Memorial Observatory (open Thurs and Sun nights free of charge).
Abacrombie
Guest performers with the Baltimore Symphony often choose this inviting B&B across from the Meyerhoff Symphony Hall. Not only is it convenient to the Meyerhoff, Lyric Opera House, and the Maryland Institute College of Art, it has a touch of European hospitality. Guest rooms, decorated with vintage furnishings and prints dressed with big bows, are cheery and bright. All have private baths. The owners, former Ritz-Carlton employees, have added luxurious touches, including robes and fine toiletries. Ask for a room at the end of the hall if you like more spacious accommodations. These have the most square footage and biggest windows. Most of these also have double sinks in a niche outside the bathrooms. The other double rooms are only a bit smaller. Single rooms are tiny with charming beds. Two connect to double rooms, perfect for families. Rollaway beds are available. A small restaurant and bar has just been opened on the ground floor.
Inn at the Colonnade
If your Baltimore visit will take you to the northern reaches of the city, to Johns Hopkins University (which is right across the street), or the Baltimore Museum of Art, or to visit friends in Homeland or Roland Park, this is a good choice. Sleek and elegant, the inn offers comfortable rooms, furnished in a Biedermeier style and plenty of amenities. The parking is a bit tricky, and you'd do best to pull up and let the valet park your car.
Inn at Henderson's Wharf
The Inn at Henderson's Wharf offers gracious waterfront surroundings on the water at Fells Point, a few blocks from the Inner Harbor, with comfortable rooms facing either the water or a central courtyard with English-style gardens. Rooms have exposed brick walls, large windows, and feather beds. Convenience is key here, from all the amenities in guest rooms to the free parking. You can even come by boat and dock in the marina at the front door. The inn takes up part of this redevelopment of an old railroad warehouse. Residences fill the rest. Hurricane Isabel caused severe damage here in fall 2003, forcing it to close for repairs until late spring 2004.
