Baltimore Black Pride begins on October 6 and runs until October 10. It is an exciting weekend filled with events like dance parties and a gala in order to promote unity for the African community in Baltimore.
The Showcase of Nations 2011 is closing on October 16. If you haven't been there yet, now's your chance to try a variety of multicultural foods, listen to music from different cultures, watch traditional dances and try your hand at cultural arts and crafts. The last two days of the festival will feature Russian heritage, including food, music, and crafts, at the Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Church.
Free Fall Baltimore is back for its sixth year, presenting more than 300 unique events, including special programs at museums, concerts, and arts vendors.
