Things to Do in Baltimore City This Week
Baltimore City is where most of the week happens — shows at Ottobar and the Crown, gallery nights in Station North, the bars and kitchens of Fells Point and Hampden, festivals along the harbor. The city itself is the venue, and the neighborhoods each run their own night: Federal Hill leans bars-and-games, Station North leans art-and-music, Hampden leans dinner-and-drinks. We read all of it and tell you what's actually worth going out for.
