“I felt that I breathed an atmosphere of sorrow.” — Edgar Allan Poe

Working Together to Keep Poe House Open (online)

March 29, 2020

Nevertheless, in this mansion of gloom I now proposed to myself a sojourn of some weeks.

Edgar A. Poe
We've also expanded to include Book Clubs!

Hello and dreary tidings to our Poe family, near and far. We hope all are sheltered safely. Despite this terrible pandemic, technology allows us to stay connected to one another. Poe Baltimore wishes to remain with you during these troubling times, and perhaps even to provide (as Poe did say) some alleviation of this malady by our presence. The Edgar Allan Poe House & Museum has temporarily closed Poe's chamber door to visitors in the flesh (and our Price Legacy Tour has been re-scheduled) but we are working to continue programming even during this difficult time. To wit:

Outlook may be bleak, but sad days are no stranger to those who love Poe. We are working now to keep Poe's chamber door open to you, even if only online. Please be safe, our dearest Poe friends.

Yours in Poe,
Enrica Jang
Director, Poe Baltimore
