[Our autumn 2014 educational partnership project with MICA and the Excel Academy]
Each year, on occasion between January and our annual grand reopening date in May, we schedule several special events in the house, as well as various programs around the city. To know what’s happening, please keep an eye out here or on Facebook, where we regularly post news.
To visit virtually via Facebook, the easiest way is to link via this website to https://www.facebook.com/PoeBaltimore?ref=bookmarks OR Google “Poe Baltimore Facebook”. Otherwise, a search IN Facebook is nearly impossible. (To become a fan via Facebook, type in “Poe Baltimore” and then “Search More” to find our brilliant yellow and black logo.)
Even better, please join us via Instagram and Twitter @PoeBaltimore. Want to become part of our #posingwithpoe fun? Use that hashtag and then check any of our vitual venues. We’ll look forward to seeing you there!
Regardless of HOW you’ll visit, we’ll hope to see you at the house, as well as out and about, throughout the city of Baltimore!
looking forward to finally (never been before) visiting for the 206th birthday celebration this weekend!
Is the museum closed this January? I would like to take my girls on Sunday but I can’t find info on the hours.
The Poe Museum has no heat, and is closed until the Memorial Day weekend (May 23-Dec 27, 2015) though please be sure to keep an eye out here for special events and announcements.
Our NEXT event, “Poe, Pints, & Poetry” will take place on Saturday, April 11, from 2-6pm.
We’ll post more about this special afternoon in our UPCOMING EVENTS listings soon, and look forward to seeing you then, or on Saturday, May 23, 2015 when we reopen the house.
Oh no! I just booked a trip to go with my sister on her business trip to Baltimore…I planned to visit the Poe House while she was working. Oh well. Can we still visit his gravesite? Any other suggestions?
Thank you for your interest in visiting the Edgar Allan Poe House. We plan to reopen on weekends this spring starting Memorial Day weekend. As for the gravesite and other locations related to Poe in Baltimore, please use our interactive map of Poe-related places to plan a tour. You can take an online tour of the house.
