Join Blue Water Baltimore for a guided walking tour of artist Bruce Willen’s Ghost Rivers art project (https://ghostrivers.com/) and one of Baltimore’s lost waterways. This walk will follow the hidden path of the Sumwalt Run, a buried creek which now flows through underground culverts deep beneath the streets of Baltimore. Participants will visit nine of the Ghost Rivers installations, learn how Baltimore’s history is currently affecting its present, and be asked to consider what the future might look like for Baltimore’s buried waterways.

This tour is 3/4 mile each way (start to end and back), and lasts 60-90 minutes.

Space for this event is limited. Registration for this event will open up in the weeks leading up to the event.

Starting a clean energy project can be challenging for municipalities—luckily, we have you covered! Join the Maryland Clean Energy Center and the Center for Climate Strategies for an introductory webinar covering the Maryland Clean Energy Resilience Toolkit, a new resource designed to help communities plan and implement clean energy and resilience projects.  

The session will introduce the Toolkit’s step-by-step framework, highlight available resources, and explore how communities can move from planning to action while advancing local resilience goals. 

DCWF encourages all residents, property owners, and stakeholders within the watershed to participate in these educational sessions and join in supporting efforts to preserve the health and beauty of Deep Creek Lake for future generations.
