 A little bit of Baltimore |
1001 W 36th Street Baltimore, MD 21211 United States +1 410 662 4438 |
This Hampden gift shop perfectly captures the commingling of traditional blue-collar values and the offbeat that wonderful Baltimore attitude celebrated in the films of director (and Baltimorean) John Waters. You'll find miniature hand-painted window screens (screen painting is a traditional Baltimore craft) and local cuisine cookbooks alongside plastic beehive-hairdo hats and Orioles checkers. If you want to take home a real piece of Charm City, this is the place to shop. Review © 2007, Wcities |

There are plenty of gift shops in town that offer Orioles caps and stuffed crabs, but for a souvenir that's uniquely Baltimorean, this is the place to shop. The handcrafted art objects for sale in this small gallery perfectly capture the quirky essence of Baltimore's whimsical, yet edgy, decorative arts scene. Here you'll find giant insects carved from telephone poles, fish with tin-can scales, plenty of very affordable jewelry, pottery and distinctive knickknacks. Nothing says 'Baltimore' like a beehive hairdo refrigerator magnet. Review © 2007, Wcities |
