Free Fall Baltimore is back for its 6th annual month-long celebration of culture in Baltimore.
This event runs from October 1st all the way through October 31st and will feature more than 300 unique art activities.
There will be many chances to try out something new this month. Take an art class. Attend a performance of a new group. Visit an unfamiliar museum and participate in its myriad events.
All the categories of events this year include art and museums, dance, history and heritage, lectures and readings, music, theatre, workshops and several special events.
This year, there will be two new activities during Free Fall 2011.
The first is Black Male Identity (BMI), an art project that uses art, images and narratives to explore and showcase positive black male identity.
The other new event is Literary Arts Week, which will be from October 15 — 22. This will be a celebration of the literary tradition in Baltimore, including a variety of poetry readings, writing workshops, spoken word performances and author appearances.
Every show, workshop, event and exhibit is free, but some may require reservations. Be sure to check the "Events" page online for instructions on how to register.
Most events are accessible by public transportation.
