Annual Report 2020 DEAR FRIENDS, We Are Pleased to Present to You the 2019-2020 Annual Report
Annual Report 2020 DEAR FRIENDS, We are pleased to present to you the 2019-2020 Annual Report. In these uncertain times, Science matters—now, more than ever. With your generous support the Maryland Science Center continues its mission of underscoring the importance of science education in our everyday lives. In the more than 40 years that the Science Center has operated at its Inner Harbor location it is safe to say that there has never been a year quite like this one. When we closed back in early March, we thought it would be for a few weeks. We never anticipated that months later we would not only have to work to ensure that our mission endures, we would also have to reinvent ourselves to continue to serve our many audiences. That process continues today and we have adapted whenever, and wherever we can, as we have for decades. Initially, the Science Center migrated to a completely virtual presence. We worked to provide resources and programs to support parents suddenly faced with becoming in-home educators. We took our popular on-site experiences and moved them completely online. And our Education Team created innovative, livestream programs that allowed participants to work on activities at home with guidance from our team in real time. As summer arrived so did the in-person visits and a return to some familiar routines, but many others, especially our vital work in schools and Head Start programs, remained suspended. It was extremely gratifying to see visitors return to our building and we look forward to that day when we return to classrooms and day care centers, summer camps and libraries, and students on field trips return to the Science Center. -

The Guy's Guide to Baltimore
The Guy's Guide to Baltimore 101 Ways To Be A True Baltimorean! By Christina Breda Antoniades. Edited by Ken Iglehart. Let’s assume, for argument’s sake, that you’ve mastered the Baltimore lexicon. You know that “far trucks” put out “fars” and that a “bulled aig” is something you eat. You know the best places to park for O’s games, where the speed traps are on I-83, and which streets have synchronized traffic lights. You know how to shell a steamed crab. You never, EVER attempt to go downy ocean on a Friday evening in the dead of summer. And, let’s face it, you get a little upset when your friends from D.C. call you a Baltimoro… well, you know. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Do you really know all it takes to be a true Baltimorean? ¶ Here, we’ve compiled a list of the 101 activities, quirky habits, and oddball pastimes, that, even if you only did half of them, would earn you certification as a true Baltimorean. Some have stood the test of time, some are new favorites, but all are unique to Charm City. If you’re a grizzled native, you’ll probably find our list a fun test that takes you down memory lane. And if you’re new in town, the guide below will definitely help you to pass yourself off as a local. ¶ So, whether you’ve been here 60 days or 60 years, we’re sure you’ll find something new (or long forgotten) in the pages that follow. -

About Baltimore—Charm City
Baltimore, Maryland - Charm City, USA Baltimore is the principal city and port of entry of Maryland and is the 13th largest city in the US, with a metropolitan area population in excess of 2.5 million. More than 100,000 students live in the Baltimore metropolitan area. Baltimore was named for the first Lord Baltimore, George Calvert, who was granted a charter key by King Charles in 1632 to establish an English colony in the New World. The first settlement on the site was made in 1662, and the town of Baltimore was laid out in 1730. The city owes its existence to the natural, deep- water harbor formed where the Patapsco River empties into the mammoth Chesapeake Bay. From its 1730 founding to the present, Baltimore has been a vital shipbuilding center and one of the nation’s largest commercial ports. Baltimore is centrally located and is only 40 miles away from Washington D.C., 70 miles away from Philadelphia, and is about 180 miles away from the New York City. By Maryland’s MARC train it costs about $5 and takes less than an hour to reach Washington, D.C. and by Amtrak train it costs about $60 and takes about 2.5 hours to Reach New York City. You can also reach New York by Greyhound bus for $25-35 (about 4-hour trip). Baltimore–Washington International Airport is one of the biggest and busiest airports in the nation and is a hub for US Airways, Southwest and United Airlines. One can catch a direct flight from Baltimore to almost any major city in America. -
