We write the Best of Baltimore issue for you, our dedicated readers, but we also like to envision some out-of-towner reading it and having their mind slightly blown. Wait, Baltimore has all that cool stuff? Yeah, pal, get on board.
We love pointing out the excellence in Baltimore—in dining, in the arts, in entertainment, in media, and more—year after year. It allows us to dig into all the creativity and genius this town nurtures. It allows us to share what we’ve learned with you. And, heck yeah, it allows us to show the world that Baltimore is one of the best cities in America. We love our job.
