Leisure is the section where we highlight the intriguing, exciting and all-around fun events and activities happening in Baltimore over the weekend.
Festivities don’t end with Halloween! Check out fun events around Baltimore as the city gets ready to welcome Thanksgiving.
I ran off to Boston for Fall Break. 99.9% of the reason was to visit my girlfriend, but a part of me wanted to analyze what gives Boston its reputation as the “best college town” and if it is actually better than the city that I’ve enjoyed so much in the past two years.
When I stepped up to the starting line of the Baltimore Marathon, I wasn’t thinking about much. The crowd buzzed around me with excitement and the National Anthem boomed from the large speakers up front. I knew roughly what pace I was supposed to run out at, and that was about it.
Fall break may be over, but fun events around the city don’t stop! Enjoy the fall season and all the festivities leading up to Halloween!
Headlining this weekend is the Baltimore Running Festival, but if that’s not for you, keep reading for all the other exciting things happening around the city!
This fall season, I picked out a few autumnal snacks to get me in the mood for the chilly weather. I’ve ranked them out of 10 in the categories of Taste, Value and the ever-critical Fall Vibes. Read on, and maybe you’ll feel inspired to have your own fall-themed shopping spree on your next grocery run!
This weekend, Charm City is bustling with festivals spanning music, culture and even Halloweeen. Make sure to check some of them out!
It’s happened to all of us: You wake up ready to start your day, you have some breakfast, you put on a cute outfit and when you step outside, you feel raindrops on your head and realize you forgot to check your weather app. Baltimore skies are unpredictable and moody, and it’s not uncommon to find our plans suddenly canceled due to inclement weather and our days — for once — free.
Saturday mornings are usually a great occasion to sleep in. After all, you have just survived another week of school and were probably out on Friday night far past your usual bedtime. If you somehow manage to wake up before 12 o’clock, you should visit the Waverly Farmers Market.
Now that the first round of midterms are mostly over, blow off some steam with the many fun events happening this weekend in Charm City!
How do you make an empty room feel like home? Until I moved into Wolman 521, I never realized just how depressingly sterile blank walls are. Every dorm room is the same — the same furniture, the same cramped size and the same worn-down feeling. While the AMRs have a different atmosphere than Wolman, they all boil down to the same foundation: a room that is only temporarily yours.
The change of seasons always comes with a lot of festivities. Celebrate the end of summer and the coming of fall with a weekend full of fun events!
This is one of my favorite races in Baltimore. Although I seem to say that for every race, I mean it this time. Not only does the course run by Homewood Campus (where I get a little adrenaline boost each time), but it also goes past many historic monuments in Baltimore City and Baltimore County — the University Baptist Church, the Washington Monument and the Cathedral of Mary Our Queen. It finishes along the harbor and truly gives you all the best views in Baltimore.
The Homewood campus is a nice, self-contained space — a bubble for the busy Blue Jay. But for new students and old ones looking to reacquaint themselves with the community, the surrounding neighborhoods have lots more to offer.
School is starting to get real! Take a break this weekend with fun events happening around the city, especially with the NFL kicking off this Thursday.
Welcome back to school! Hope everyone had a good first week of classes. Celebrate with a Labor Day weekend full of events, both at school and around Baltimore.
We made it, Blue Jays! Classes have ended, and summer is just around the corner. For some of us, that means leaving Baltimore for a few months. For others, though, it means even more leisure time in this lovely city! If you’re sticking around over the next few months, check out these events in Baltimore.
Congratulations on finishing your last week of classes! There is a whole week until the start of finals; take this weekend to enjoy the Spring Fair and connect with the city at these great events.
