Highlandtown Art Walk: Nov 1 – I ♥ Highlandtown

Join us for the November Art Walk with over a dozen venues featuring live music, art demos, drink specials, tasty eats and more! Explore our unique array of shops, galleries, landmarks and murals on a self-guided walking tour.

Tonight’s theme is “HAUNTED” and we’ll be celebrating with a Gritty in the City Ghost Tour where Psychic Medium Darren BuCare will take you on a tour through the Higlandtown Arts District and talk about the history of some haunted buildings, and the stories they claim.

Also, celebrate the Grand Re-Opening of PEAK Performance Training at 512 S. Conkling St. from 6-9pm with live music, refreshments and a celebratory toast at 7pm.
