Led by Debbie LaMar, Crafts & Sewing Instructor, HCC
Yo-yos – gathered rosettes of fabric – were a popular sewing project in the 1920s, 30s, and 40s. They are a great way to use up fabric scraps, and since they’re small and hand sewn, you can work on them on-the-go! Finished yo-yos can be used to embellish quilts, or sewn together to become a quilt themselves. Give it a try with sewing instructor and long-time quilter Debbie LaMar.
Free event. Limited seating. Reservations required.

Annual Meeting and Archer Lecture ft. Author and Maryland State Archivist Owen Lourie
November 14 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm
The Historical Society is pleased to announce this year’s guest speaker for the George W. Archer Lecture: author and State Archives Senior Archivist Owen Laurie, who will relate the story behind his new book about the Maryland 400.
For more than 10 years, staff members at the Maryland State Archives have researched the soldiers who served in the Maryland 400. They have written and posted online biographies of all the known members of the unit. Now that the work has been published as a book, this is the first time that every Maryland soldier’s story has been told, including some soldiers from Harford County!
In August 1776, Maryland’s soldiers saved the Continental Army at the Battle of Brooklyn, earning the nickname “Maryland 400.” They went on to fight in nearly every major battle of the War, gaining renown for their courage and discipline. Their story has never been fully recognized. This is a unique opportunity to hear these stories and learn of the incredible bravery of these Marylanders and their role in changing the world.

Led by Andrea Staschak, Sewing Instructor
In applique quilting sewing, you sew smaller fabric shapes onto larger sections of fabric. Curvy shapes can be easier to produce with applique. This technique was especially popular in the second half of the 19th century, and is used to produce that regional specialty, Baltimore album quilts. Give it a try with sewing instructor and long-time quilter Andrea Staschak.
Free event. Limited seating.

Bel Air, MD 21015
Join C. Milton Wright High School’s Stage Wright for our fall production of The Curious Savage, a heartwarming comedy that reminds us that sometimes the people who seem the most unusual are the ones who see the world most clearly.
When the delightfully eccentric Mrs. Savage inherits a fortune, she has big plans to use it to spread happiness and help others fulfill their dreams. Unfortunately, her greedy stepchildren have other ideas. Determined to get their hands on her money, they have her committed to a private sanatorium called The Cloisters.
But what Mrs. Savage discovers inside is something she never expected: a wonderfully quirky group of residents whose kindness, honesty, and compassion stand in sharp contrast to the so-called “sane” world outside.
Filled with clever humor, colorful characters, unexpected twists, and touching moments, The Curious Savage is a story about greed, generosity, friendship, and what it truly means to be rich.
Come for the laughs. Leave with a little more faith in humanity.

We would not recognize Colonial America’s holiday season. Puritans in New England banned Christmas festivities, focusing on religious observance. Elsewhere, Christmas was a bit more festive; there were dances, community feasts, and caroling. Gifts were uncommon. Some people exchanged food or homemade goods, but residents in the 13 colonies disagreed fiercely on how to celebrate Christmas if at all.
