Five things to eat, drink, see, hear, and do with your Charm City weekend.

 EAT

March 11: Pig Parts & Pancakes

Foraged Eatery, 3520 Chestnut Ave. 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Free. 410-235-0035.

For many of us, Sunday brunch is a must-do weekend ritual, so naturally we were excited to hear that this new farm-to-table eatery would be debuting its inaugural service this weekend. On Sunday, head to the tiny, trendy Hampden spot for a hyper-seasonal brunch menu featuring chef  Chris Amendola’s trademark pig parts and made-to-order mimosas (and beermosas!). While it sounds like an unconventional pairing, let your adventurous weekend self be pleasantly surprised by crispy pig ears and fluffy pancake stacks drizzled with a local delicacy—black walnut and red maple syrup, harvested from Whistle Pig Hollow and Third Way Farms.

 DRINK

March 9: End of Prohibition Party

Chuck’s Trading Post, 1506 W. 36th St. 3-11 p.m. Free. 410-366-0178.

Baltimore has a long, storied history with Prohibition, with speakeasies and hidden stashes of booze fueling the city’s best parties in the 1920s. Now, almost a century later, this Hampden hideaway will break in its new liquor license and celebrate its own end to Prohibition with free-flowing Union Craft brews and an all-afternoon party. For the first time ever, pair Double Duckpins and Old Pros with Best of Baltimore-winning skillet dishes and cured meat sandwiches as you raise a glass to our country’s hooch-filled future.

March 10: Adam Davies ‘Reroutings’ Exhibition

Creative Alliance, 3134 Eastern Ave. 6-9 p.m. Free. 410-276-1651. 

This month, Creative Alliance resident artist Adam Davies will transform the Highlandtown gallery into Reroutings, a brand-new exhibit featuring his large-format photographs of ordinary public structures, such as overlooked bridges or tunnels, that have served another purpose as accidental civic forums. During the opening reception on Saturday, LA-based musician Alex Zhang Hungtai, known largely for his lo-fi electronic project Dirty Beaches, will perform the soundscapes that helped influence the artist’s photos. Listen as the waves of sound fill the room and immerse yourself in Davies’ monumental photographs of graffiti-covered walls in this dark, intimate space.

March 9: March 9: Super City/:3ION/Raw Silk

Metro Gallery, 1700 N. Charles St. 8 p.m. $10. 410-244-0899. 

If you weren’t hiding under a rock last year, you probably caught wind of Super City’s infectious music video for its even more addictive single, “Artificial Sin.” If you didn’t, Google it now and you’ll instantly know why you need to be at The Metro Gallery this Friday night. Watch the indie-pop-rock group perform their choreographed dance moves and hear new music off their upcoming 2018 album. Local electronic R&B singer (and Best of Baltimore winner) :3ION will be opening the show with his bewitching pop music, as will New York City’s dance band Raw Silk.

March 9: Intercambio

The Baltimore Museum of Art, 10 Art Museum Dr. 7-10 p.m. $25-30. 443-573-1700.

With the U.S. immigration debate at the forefront of national news, there’s never been a more important time to come together and hear stories from Baltimoreans about their experiences with exchange and inspiration across the U.S.-Mexico Border. As part of Stoop Storytelling’s “Stoop Special Engagement” series that coincides with The Baltimore Museum of Art’s Crossing Borders: Mexican Modernist Prints exhibit, listen to seven storytellers share their personal, deeply human anecdotes, including local artist Alfonso Fernandez on re-discovering his Mexican heritage through art and Clavel’s chef Carlos Raba on his father’s murder and growing up in Culiacán, Sinaloa. While you’re there, take advantage of after-hours access to the modernist print exhibit before it closes on Sunday.

Visual Art

Devin Allen’s A Beautiful Ghetto exhibit
Baltimore street photographer Devin Allen became known across the nation for his work after one of his images of the 2015 Baltimore protests was featured as the cover of Time magazine. Three years later, and in honor of that anniversary, the Institute for Integrative Health will exhibit a series of his black-and-white photos documenting the riots in A Beautiful Ghetto. Maybe more importantly, the show will serve as a launchpad for community-wide discussions. This kicks off with an artist talk during the opening reception, where his 2017 book by the same title will be available, and it continues with various events with a focus on healing, such as the April 13 dialogue with artists, writers, and leaders about creating healing spaces for their communities. The Institute for Integrative Health, 1407 Fleet St. Opening reception: 6 to 8:30 p.m. March 15.

Adam Davies: Reroutings
Creative Alliance resident artist Adam Davies will transform the space there to bring us Reroutings, an exhibit of his large-format film photographs of outdoor structures that have served as unofficial public forums (think graffiti-strewn bridges and unexpected street art found during a stroll). The gallery space will be completely darkened and the walls painted black and replaced with his huge (56- by 70-inch) photographic images, which will be lit from behind. Alex Zhang Hungtai of Dirty Beaches will perform his lo-fi electronica soundscapes—which were an influence on the photography series—during an opening reception on March 10, and more events will follow. Opens March 10 at the Creative Alliance, 3134 Eastern Ave.

Stephen Towns: Rumination and a Reckoning
Story quilts are an African-American tradition dating back at least some 200 years. Some historians believe that secret codes were sewn into quilts, providing maps for navigating the Underground Railroad. Baltimore artist Stephen Towns continues in this tradition, exploring themes of slavery and perspectives of women and people of color through his large-scale fabric and bead-work pieces, often featuring faceless black figures that appear as silhouettes. The Baltimore Museum of Art will exhibit 10 of his quilts in Rumination and a Reckoning beginning this month, seven of which depict the story of Nat Turner and his 1831 rebellion. As if that weren’t enough, the museum will host Towns in conversation with internationally renowned artist Mark Bradford. March 7 through Sept. 2 at the Baltimore Museum of Art, 10 Art Museum Drive.

Music

Baltimore Plays The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 20th Anniversary
Hard as it may be to believe, it’s been 20 years since the release of the seminal album The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill. In a homage to the work, several artists—Jasmine Pope (J Pope and the HearNow), Christen B, Joy Postell, Karin Sings Evans, Marc Avon Evans, Jamaal Black Root Collier—will gather at the Creative Alliance to perform its tracks in their own style. March 18 at the Creative Alliance, 3134 Eastern Ave.

Theater

Humbug: The Great P.T. Barnum Séance
Magician David London will attempt to summon the spirit of The Great P.T. Barnum via—what else?—séance in his new show Humbug at The Peale Center. While we can’t guarantee audiences will make contact with the legendary showman, we do guarantee the exhibition of genuine Barnum artifacts (honestly, that might be a hoax, too—in the spirit of P.T. Barnum, of course). March 8 to 25 at The Peale Center, 225 N. Holliday St.

Film

Everything is Terrible!’s The Great Satan
Imagine being able to get a taste of more than more than 2,000 horror, satanic, and religious films in under two hours. You don’t have to imagine anymore. Everything is Terrible! has done the work for you, creating a narrative from scraps of material to make the kitschy, trippy new film The Great Satan. In their own words: “Since the dawn of time, man has searched for answers . . . and failed. But the fog of existence has finally cleared thanks to the eternal fruits of your favorite found footage collective.” The makers will be at the theater to present their film as part of their cross-country tour. Guests are encouraged to bring offerings of VHS tapes of Jerry Maguire. March 7 at SNF Parkway Theatre, 5 W. North Ave.

Kékszakállú

Baltimore’s Matt Porterfield, best known for his films Hamilton and Putty Hill, will host and do a Q&A at two screenings of the gorgeous Argentine film Kékszakállú, co-written and co-produced by him and directed by Gastón Solnicki. The coming-of-age film’s title and inspiration comes from the opera Bluebeard’s Castle and follows a group of upper-class girls as they enter the world outside of their privileged lives. March 2 to 8 at SNF Parkway Theatre, 5 W. North Ave.
