Owner description:
The Baltimore Museum of Art has an internationally renowned collection of 19th-century, modern, and contemporary art that includes the largest holding of works by Henri Matisse in the world. Outstanding European and American fine and decorative arts, 15th- through 19th-century prints and drawings, African art, and two beautifully landscaped sculpture gardens are among the BMA’s many other collection highlights. The Museum is located three miles north of Baltimore’s Inner Harbor in a park-like setting adjacent to the main campus of The Johns Hopkins University. Visitors enjoy superb regional cuisine from celebrity chef John Shields’ restaurant, Gertrude’s, and a variety of unique art-inspired gifts from The BMA Shop. Thanks to extraordinary government and private support, general admission to the BMA is FREE for everyone, every day, so that great art is accessible to all. Visit the BMA's website to see the current schedule of exhibitions and programs and also for updates on the $24.5 million renovation. The Museum completed the first phase with the acclaimed reopening of Contemporary Wing in November 2012. The next phase—improving the presentation of the American and African art collections and the lobby, and upgrading essential infrastructure—will be completed during the Museum’s 100th anniversary in 2014.

Owner description:
Baltimore is steeped in a proud and rich nautical tradition. For more than 35 years, the Baltimore Water Taxi's blue and white fleet has proven itself to be an integral part the city's history and culture. In fact, we're as much a part of the city's history as the revitalized Inner Harbor.But the Water Taxi is more than a jaunt across the harbor; it's a Baltimore institution and a way of life. Everyday, thousands of residents and visitors not only rely on us to take them safely to their destinations, they appreciate our knowledge of the area and our courteous service. And everyday, hundreds of local businesses rely on us to deliver customers to their locations. We know the city. We love the city. We keep the city moving. We help keep businesses thriving. And most importantly, we offer the most unique way to see Baltimore and we provide an unforgettable experience that keeps our passengers coming back again and again. Welcome to Baltimore. Welcome aboard!
