As part of monthly programming for our new exhibition, The Underground Railroad: Freedom Seekers on the B&O Railroad, 19th Century food and beverage historian, Nancy Siegel, will be leading a discussion and food tasting centered on the food that Henry “Box” Brown ate prior to, during, and after his journey on the Underground Railroad. Join us at the B&O Railroad Museum for this culinary experience on Saturday, October 22, from 1–3 PM.

The Underground Railroad exhibit particularly made an impression. You can learn about the enslaved people who passed through Mount Clare Station as their last stop before reaching the northern states. Sobering and inspiring stories.
