About this event
Join Tola’s Room and Baltimore Heritage for El Barrio Walking Tour, a guided walk through Fells Point(once known as “El Barrio”) exploring the presence, experiences, and influence of Puerto Ricans in Baltimore from the 1800s to the present day. Through a humble, community-centered lens, we’ll share stories of Puerto Rican migration, neighborhood life, cultural traditions, and some of the Puerto Ricans who helped shape Baltimore’s history and Latino communities. As part of Tola’s Room’s BmoreBoricuas Project, the tour draws from archival research, historical records, newspapers, and community stories to illuminate a history that has often gone overlooked. Puerto Ricans have been part of Baltimore’s story for generations. This is one way we honor, remember, and continue that narrative. This is part of our Light City tour series –join us for a series of evening walking and boat tours to see our city in a new light. Participants are encouraged to take advantage of Baltimore’s evening offerings, including local entertainment and restaurants.
