Enoch Pratt Free Library, Maryland Room
So, yesterday I went to the Enoch Pratt Free Library. I visited the Maryland room and spoke with Jeff one of the librarians. He was so wonderfully helpful! He helped me look up some information online, and then directed me to Artscape's vertical files. Unfortunately, I was only able to view one of the folders out of the five or six available to me due to time constraints. I saw some of the first pamphlets and fliers that Artscape had sent out to advertise for the event. I am hoping that I may scan some of these to show everyone. I will be going back to the Enoch Pratt Free Library on Wednesday after class.

Research Proposal
This research blog will be focusing on Baltimore's Artscape; its beginnings and its place in the Baltimore scene today. I will be focusing on the companies and people who began Artscape, as well as how this event has created a different Baltimore socially, politically, and culturally.
I am excited to research Baltimore's Artscape because I know I will gain a new understanding of Baltimore, as well as a deeper appreciation of art.

About Me

- 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.
