ABOUT THE BLYSS NEIGHBORHOOD CRAWL:

The BLYSS Neighborhood Crawl was created to immerse Baltimore transplants and young professionals into the city’s neighborhoods, highlighting their social scene and unique character. Every month we experience a neighborhood together, showcasing its third places, interest-based activities, and cultural staples.

Every month we pick a neighborhood and experience it together, showcasing its third places, interest-based activities, and cultural staples. Throughout the month, participants are guided through a curated journey to discover Baltimore while building meaningful connections along the way.

This is not a typical food tour or networking event. The Crawl blends tastings, creative workshops, and community experiences in an intimate format that makes Baltimore feel accessible, vibrant, and alive.

Our goal is for attendees to leave the Neighborhood Crawl with at least one new brand they’re excited to try, one place they want to go back to, and one new connection to experience Baltimore with!
