Art from other worlds |
800 Key Highway Baltimore, MD 21230 United States +1 410 244 1900 http://www.avam.org |
'Visionary' is a term used to describe art that is created by people who use ordinary media to express their own intensely personal ideas about life. This museum has assembled a wonderful collection of this very Visionary art. Since Visionary artists generally lack formal training, and work outside of established art traditions, their works are as bold, innovative and inspirational as the visions that spawned them. Admission: USD11 Adults, USD7 Students and seniors, USD6 per person for groups of ten or more. Children under four years of age and under are free. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Fascinating history of dentistry |
31 South Greene Street Baltimore, MD 21201-1504 United States +1 410 706 0600 http://www.dentalmuseum.umaryl... |
In 1840, Baltimore became home to the world's first college of dentistry. Today, this museum offers a fascinating and fun-filled look at the history of dental medicine. Highlights include historical dental tools, a giant mouth-shaped juke-box, and a set of George Washington's dentures, which, by the way, were not wooden! For those interested in medicine it's a pleasant, informative diversion. Admission is USD4.5o for adults, seniors and youth USD2.50. Children under six years and NMD members can come free.

East meets West at the Walters. On one hand, its collection spans nearly the entire history of Western art. Its spacious galleries are home to Greek and Roman statuary, Baroque carvings, and a large collection of Renaissance paintings. On the other hand, its elegant Hackerman House wing holds one of the largest collections of traditional Asian art in the United States. Admission to the permanent collection is always free.
