Organizing my research...



Not sure if this is worth mentioning, but I thought this might be a good idea for some students to do to save some time. When I went therough the vertical files for Artscape I wrote down on a piece of paper every item in each folder so when I go back and wanted to look at a particular article, or item I know exactly where it should be. :)

Artscape was born in 1982!


So, this past week I spent a little over 18 hours in the Maryland room of the Enoch Pratt Free Library. I went through every vertical file entitled "Artscape," and a few files from the earlier "Baltimore Arts Festival." I was so relieved to see that the Library had copies and pamphlets of the first Artscape. When I first talked with Jeff the Librarian he had expressed some concern saying we might not be able to locate articles mentioning the first Artscape since the Library is missing Baltimore Sun articles from the 1950s-80s. I took a few pictures of my Artscape researching “adventure.”

Hello! I am starting this blog to track both mine, my boyfriends, and my dogs training progress. Pippin is a 6 year old terrier mix that recently bit my boyfriend, and since the bite has displayed what we to believe as dominance aggression towards him. Up until this point he was loosely trained and treated like he was a fellow human/ member of the family. He IS a member of the family but he needs to learn his spot in our pack and I need to ensure that he is not a threat to anyone. The day after the bite was filled with a multitude of questions from training methods to thoughts about humane euthanasia. I was thankful for some online sources (that I will link and reference throughout our journey) and believe that this might serve to help others as well as help my boyfriend and I document this experience.
