THE ARTS


Beautiful inside and outside, and historically significant,
the Baltimore School for the Arts makes it home in the former Alcazar Hotel (1924)
 and a brownstone mansion (1850) next door, once the residence of H.L. Mencken.
It is located about two blocks from where I live in the Mt. Vernon neighborhood
of downtown Baltimore.
Recently, my friend and neighbor, Linda and I, enjoyed a wonderful
Sunday matinee production of  music and dance in the magnificent theater there.
