The following plan contains several strategies for engaging South Baltimore neighborhoods in the city's vibrant cultural community. The four major areas of the plan cover Accessibility and Inclusion, Arts Education, Partnership, and Heritage. Each of areas aligns with the strategies outlined in the Gateway Master Plan: Strategies under the South Baltimore Gateway Master Plan • STRATEGY A: Support initiatives that address challenges within families and communities to improve student performance. • STRATEGY B: Ensure all residents have access to educational support and technology resources. • STRATEGY D: Preserve, enhance, and share information about historic resources. Accessibility Connecting South Baltimore residents to city wide arts and culture activities should be a constant goal. Eliminating barriers and increasing access through intentional planning creates new ways for people to engage and feel welcomed at arts and cultural activities and feel empowered to create their own events, activities and traditions.

Wells II June 2006 This thesis entitled THE HISTORICAL GEOGRAPHY OF RACIAL AND ETHNIC ACCESS WITHIN BALTIMORE’S CARROLL PARK: 1870-1954 by JAMES E. WELLS II has been approved for the Department of Geography and the College of Arts and Sciences by Geoffrey L. Buckley Associate Professor of Geography Benjamin M. Ogles Dean, College of Arts and Sciences Abstract WELLS, JAMES E. II, M.A., June 2006, Geography THE HISTORICAL GEOGRAPHY OF RACIAL AND ETHNIC ACCESS WITHIN BALTIMORE’S CARROLL PARK: 1870-1954 (96 pp.) Director of Thesis: Geoffrey L. Buckley In order to understand the present patterns of use seen in urban green spaces, it is often important to look at the history of the areas being studied. For example, people tend to shy away from parks with a history of racial violence or segregation even after the problem no longer exists. Baltimore’s Carroll Park provides an excellent example of an urban green space with a long history of different policies regarding who could be granted access to the park facilities. From its beginnings as a wealthy estate owned by the Carroll Family, the land being studied here passed into the hands of the private, German- run West Baltimore Schuetzen Association, and later into the possession of the City of Baltimore as what we now know as Carroll Park.
