Something wicked this way rows…
Poets, paddlers, and anyone with a taste for the macabre are invited to join us for Baltimore’s first-ever Edgar Allan Row, a free paddling meet up with a distinctly Baltimore twist.
Paddling and Poe—it doesn’t get more Baltimore than that.
Grab a kayak, canoe, rowboat, or stand-up paddleboard, don your best Poe-inspired attire, and launch from anywhere along the Baltimore Blueway and then make your way to Fells Point. Paddlers will gather on the water in front of Pitango Bakery in Fells Point at 4:00 PM before setting out on a spooky journey through Baltimore Harbor featuring readings of Edgar Allan Poe classics. The evening will culminate at Mr. Trash Wheel with a reading of fan favorite “The Raven.”
And, of course, we have to know: How many Poes will row? We’ll gather all of our Poe-inspired paddlers for an unforgettable group photo and see just how many Poes, ravens, and other characters from the eerie mind of Baltimore’s legendary writer we can assemble at once.
Don’t have a boat? Fear nevermore! The Baltimore Harbor is home to a variety of rental companies and self-service kayak rental kiosks, making it easy to join the fun. For more information about public launches and rentals, visitBaltimoreBlueway.org.
Costumes are highly encouraged.
