SUMMARY:Through a Glass Darkly: The Social History of Stained Glass in Baltimore
DESCRIPTION:Among its many architectural treasures\, Charm City has an abundance of stained-glass windows dating back to the 19th century. But will this beloved art form continue here in the coming years? Anthropologist and author Linda Rabben explores this question and many more in Through a Glass Darkly: The Social History of Stained Glass in Baltimore\, the first illustrated book on the subject. \nRegister to join the Baltimore Architecture Foundation at Zion Church of the City of Baltimore on Saturday\, January 7\, 2024\, at 2 pm\, to learn about stained glass in the city’s homes\, civic buildings and houses of worship\, including the windows that adorn the church. \nThe author will share her research on the social\, economic and cultural contexts of this traditional art and craft\, as well as the people who made and still make the windows. A diverse group—including Charm City buffs\, decorative-arts aficionados\, architects\, historians\, artists and crafters\, students\, city planners\, social scientists\, civil rights activists\, and stained-glass makers—will view these feasts for the eye and hear the stories they tell. \nZion Church of the City of Baltimore\, host of the talk\, is featured in the book’s text and images. Church member Bernard Penner will share additional information about Zion’s history and its stained-glass windows. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Artist Talk - Alberto Cavalieri
DESCRIPTION:Catalyst Contemporary and the Baltimore chapter of the American Institute of Architects partner to present sculpture by Alberto Cavalieri at the Center for Architecture and Design. The works on display come from Cavalieri’s series of twisting and elegant “Knots.” In solid cast iron and fabricated\, modular aluminum these knot sculptures take viewers on a journey through the beautiful potential of Cavalieri’s elegant forms and into the context of the much larger-scaled possibilities of architecture. \nAIA Baltimore is excited to exhibit Alberto Cavalieri’s works to promote dialog about form\, materiality\, and construction and\, on a deeper level\, the artist’s use of knots in response to the built environment of his native Venezuela. \nJoin AIA Baltimore and Catalyst Contemporary in conversation with Alberto Cavalieri Thursday\, August 3 from 6-7pm to discuss Minimalist construct principles\, an art making process that marries computer-aided design and traditional metal working and finding inspiration in abandoned promises. This talk will be recorded and the recording will be made available to all registrants. \nRegister for free here.

SUMMARY:Preservation for the People: The Fight for Development Without Displacement
DESCRIPTION:Photo of Sonia Eaddy by Charles Cohen/Poppleton Photo. \nDate: September 29\, 2022\nTime: 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM EDT\nLocation:\nMICA Brown Center/ Falvey Hall\n1300 Mt. Royal Ave Baltimore\, MD 21217 \n[REGISTER HERE] \nAbout this event\nAfter an 18-year fight to save her home from condemnation by Baltimore City\, Sonia Eaddy won. The historic Sarah Ann Street alley houses will be preserved and offered for homeownership after being rehabbed by Shelley Halstead of Black Women Build. However\, the story of redevelopment in Poppleton illustrates how Baltimore City failed to see and hear the people of this historically Black neighborhood along the Highway to Nowhere. Working with residents on research\, public programming\, and organizing to amplify the stories of legacy residents fighting for development without displacement\, we were able to achieve a reset on a misguided redevelopment project underway since 2004. The City’s stance is that we cannot change the past and must move forward in good faith. As a cultural historian and preservationist\, I argue we must honor and remember the past and how we got here in order to do the hard work to repair and make amends for the damage done to Black neighborhoods and people in Baltimore. We need real change on how development works in Baltimore and cities like it. \nAbout the Speaker\nNicole King\, Ph.D. is an associate professor in the Department of American Studies and director of the Orser Center for the Study of Place\, Community\, and Culture at UMBC. Her research focuses on issues of place\, power\, and economic development. She co-founded the Baltimore Traces: Communities in Transition public humanities project where students work with local partners to research historic neighborhoods and complete cultural documentation projects. She is an editor of the book Baltimore Revisited: Stories of Inequality and Resistance in a U.S. City (Rutgers University Press\, 2019).

SUMMARY:Baltimore’s Highway to Nowhere: A Forum on Reconnecting Communities
DESCRIPTION:The Highway to Nowhere is a lasting remnant of past efforts to connect Interstate 70 with Interstates 83 and 95 around Baltimore’s Central Business District. Largely uncompleted\, only a 1.4-mile stretch of Route 40 was constructed\, resulted in the demolition of homes and businesses and the displacement of approximately 1\,500 residents of West Baltimore. Roughly 50 years later\, the Highway to Nowhere remains as both a physical and scar in the community dividing large swaths of West Baltimore that were once connected. \nWith this event\, AIA Baltimore’s Urban Design Committee wants to provide stakeholders a platform and to honor to see and present ideas that have already been developed over the years. Featuring fast-paced Pecha Kucha style presentations\, the speakers will discuss past and ongoing grassroots organizing efforts\, development opportunities\, academic work focused on the Highway to Nowhere\, planning studies\, and Baltimore City’s current efforts to obtain federal funding through the Reconnecting Communities Pilot Program. Presentations will be followed by a question and answer session and then time for informal discussions. Drinks and light snacks will be provided. \n  \n[REGISTER HERE]

SUMMARY:Hybrid Panelization (BEC Baltimore + AIA Baltimore)
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, February 10\, 2022\nVia webinar\n12:30-1:30pm (Eastern)\n1 AIA LU (HSW) will be provided \nOff-site panelized construction is a growing and efficient method of production in commercial construction. Typically\, panels are fabricated completely off-site and transported and installed on-site as a full wall system. However\, due to potential irregularities in building materials\, challenges with ensuring continuity of control functions between panels can arise\, specifically related to air and water control. The Philly Live! Hotel and Casino opted for a hybrid approach combining pre-fabrication of the wall panels including the CFMF substrate\, gypsum sheathing and air/water resistive membrane\, allowing for appropriate sealing between panels on site prior to installation of the exterior insulation and cladding. Please join BEC-Baltimore and EDA Contractors in a discussion on this hybrid approach. \nIn this session\, participants will learn to: \n\nDifferentiate the positives and negatives of typical ‘panelization’ versus hybrid ‘panelization’;\nRecognize the sequence coordination involved in constructing a complicated exterior panel rainscreen wall system;\nExamine virtual design tools and functionality needed to synchronize the installer and design team; and\nAppraise multiple virtual design tools in realistic scenarios in an actual case study during a pandemic.\n\nREGISTER HERE

Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. \nAbout this Presentation: \nPrior to the processing of her archival collection at Morgan State University\, Victorine Adams remained obscured behind the imposing notoriety of her husband\, William “Little Willie” Adams. Yet she led a remarkable life and was the first African American woman elected to the Baltimore City Council in 1967. Adams also created two organizations\, participated in philanthropic endeavors\, mentored young women and maintained an impeccable reputation and social life. She was a self-assured woman aware of the distortion that surrounded her race\, gender and class in Baltimore. Join Morgan State’s University Archivist Dr. Ida E. Jones to see how Victorine Adams’ “compassionate conviction” compelled her to organize\, raise her voice and run for public office in service to the masses of underserved people in her hometown of Baltimore. \nIda E.
