Reply to Does anyone know where this photo might have been taken? by AnakinKardashian

This looks to me as a photo take in the old country. My boss once owned a house in Union Sq.

He found a couple of 19th century photos. One was a portrait of a German man, and one was a family standing behind a casket, in front of a church in Easter Europe.

When I see an old photo and every one in the photo looks like they were cut out of the same bolt of cloth, I think Old country. Once they get to America, inter marriage make groups of people look like a patchwork quilt.

Reply to Fun classes for adults? Cooking/other creative activities? by librarysquarian

I took some classes at Baltimore Chef Shop in Hampden a few years back. I think they went online during the pandemic, and I’m not sure what their status is now, but I’d definitely recommend them.

I also took a calligraphy class that was a lot of fun. Local calligraphers and artists will usual host events at breweries or art studios sometimes.

Station North Tool Library does a lot of great classes that are very fun and a great way to learn some new skills.

I took the kitchen knife making class back in the first year they started offering it and had a blast. Learned a ton, met some cool people, and left with a new set of skills that I've used to make custom gifts for friends and family several times since.
