STOP TO MARVEL Sometimes, it’s easier to revel in life’s simple pleasures when you’re on your own. After all, what better time to experience Maryland’s rich history and vibrant creative communities than when you have the time to appreciate them to your heart’s content? Browse some of the best art the world has to offer at the Baltimore Museum of Art, home to an extensive historic collection in addition to contemporary exhibits; or the American Visionary Arts Museum, which seamlessly combines art, humor, social justice, and modern issues. For art in the outdoors, stroll the natural landscapes at Glenstone Museum to discover large-scale sculptures and thoughtful architecture, or peruse traditional handicrafts at the Ward Museum of Waterfowl Art, featuring decorative decoys in a museum overlooking Schumaker Pond, a perfect spot for birding for migrating birds on the Atlantic Flyway. Gorgeous views also come naturally when you hop aboard the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad. Or make your own scavenger hunt as you track down the many public art displays and colorful murals scattered across the state, including the street art in Baltimore’s Station North Arts District and the whimsical chicken sculptures in Annapolis. Make time to marvel at some of Maryland’s architectural gems such as the Maryland Statehouse and St. Anne’s Church within the historic district of Annapolis. In Baltimore, discover historic buildings remodeled and reimagined as trendy new breweries, boutiques, restaurants, and residences.
