Tomorrow, June 12, is Second Saturday! All visitors can take advantage of free admission to the Maryland Center for History and Culture, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Be sure to stop by the new “Discover Maryland” exhibition, where you can try your hand as an artist and enjoy family-friendly button-making and drawing activities from 10 a.m. until noon. If you’re in need of some artistic inspiration, never fear! “Discover Maryland” includes a multitude of artwork that connects to our state’s rich history and culture, including this painting by Herman Maril. The painter’s large black cat is depicted sitting on the banister in the foyer of Maril’s Baltimore home.
