The Dundalk Moose Lodge is a true gem…read more Fraternal Organizations like the Moose have sadly, become less and less a part of the American Landscape. Those "in the know" still get the value of such places in terms of fun events, down-to-earth patrons, cheap drinks, and good food. Membership does has its privileges. I originally checked out the lodge when my car club decided to host our annual car show there. Once inside, I was in love with the nostalgic charm of the place, and with the regulars which are good salt-of-the-earth folks with good stories. Of course, as you'd expect, there's LOTS of characters, which to me is a BONUS. AND...There's a HUGE creepy nicotine-stained portrait of a child praying hanging on the wall, which really adds to the overall awesome of the main hall. I joined the Moose last year and just renewed my membership. It pays for itself on what you save on your bar tab, and everyone goes out of your way to make you feel welcome. If there's a particular kind of hooch you're into, they'll usually try to get it. Some lodges also serve food on certain nights, and it's generally pretty good. I usually scope out what other people are having and order once I have some reviews, vs. trying something new sight unseen. And if you're not sure about a lodge, most of them have public events that will allow you to check it out even if you aren't a member.

What an interesting and cool place to visit, Baltimore Underground Science Space is a non-profit…read moresynthetic biology and biotechnology maker space laboratory for science enthusiasts, hobbyists, and professionals to practice, share and learn about the biological sciences. BUGSS is a great place for the do-it-yourself scientist. They offer courses and lectures and have a community lab space. Dr. Tom Burkett founded it in 2012. The building itself has a lot of history. The building was constructed as the Haven Street Factory for the Steiner Mantel Company, which made mantels and other furnishings. The northern portion of the building was sold in 1910 to the King Cork & Seal Company, which manufactured gaskets and seals. The building has had many tenants over the years. The building has been restored to bring out the charm of its historic industrial architecture while providing upgraded technology and amenities.

Who knew Baltimore even has a Science Fiction Society? And that it's been around more than fifty…read moreyears? This club is amazingly cool, at least for those who may view cool through a pair of 3-D glasses. Their clubhouse is a reader's delight, stocked floor to ceiling with books and manga. It used to be a movie theater, and they have occasional movie nights making it a perfect meeting spot for Dr. Who fans, anime enthusiasts and geeks of every stripe. And now that pop culture is mainstream, that includes just about everybody. Once a year BSFS hosts Balticon, the Baltimore Science Fiction and Fantasy convention, a precursor of today's mega-comicons. They bring together readers and writers, artists and vendors, cosplayers and fans of every stripe and it is a truly amazing scene. BSFS is also a tax-free charity, working with several literary organizations to provide books to underprivileged children among other things, so teenagers who need to fulfill their community service requirements can do so by volunteering at a science fiction convention.

From the owner: Our annual four-day celebration of science fiction and fantasy, Balticon 59, will take place at the…read moreRenaissance Baltimore Harborplace Hotel, May 23-26, 2025.
