AMST 422: Preserving Places, Making Spaces in Baltimore
ENTR Class, Spring 2014
AMST 422: Preserving Places, Making Spaces in Baltimore trains students to complete research in cultural history and develop related public programming working with a community in Baltimore city. For spring 2014, we are working with the historic industrial community of Baybrook, which includes Brooklyn and Curtis Bay and the “lost neighborhoods” of Masonville, Fairfield, Wagner’s Point, and Hawkin’s Point. AMST 422 students have been working with residents of the community since 2009. The course incorporates the skills of social entrepreneurship—using entrepreneurial methods to produce measurable social outcomes. The culmination of the course is a public event in the community. Students complete numerous hours of community service, including attending community meetings, park cleanups, citizens on patrol walks, college fairs, and community gardening events to build relationships with residents. AMST 422 students will work with Professor Steve Bradley and his ART 390: Imaging Research Center (IRC) Fellows students on the final community event and populating the Mapping Baybrook digital exhibition with content:
During the semester, Students will research the environmental history of both industry and the green space
in the community. We will also work with “green businesses” emerging in the area and with Jason Reed, who runs the Filbert Street Community Garden in Curtis Bay. Reed received an Open Society Institute (OSI) Fellowship in 2011 to continue his work with the garden and connected projects—which he calls the Curtis Bay-Brooklyn Urban-Agriculture and Stewardship Program (CUSP). The project uses urban agriculture to improve the health of residents, foster community pride, and increase awareness of the need for land stewardship and good nutrition: http://www.filbertstreetgarden.blogspot.com/
Central questions the spring 2014 classes will explore are: What is environmental justice? What are the parallels between the disciplines of art and history? Can students develop hybrid methods of inquiry? What does true interdisciplinary collaboration look like? How does collaboration complicate and enhance the learning experience? How can art and history be used to enhance justice in urban communities?

New space on campus just for student entrepreneurs
Entre-Space, network, brainstorm, create
At UMBC, we believe in entrepreneurship and innovation! The Alex. Brown
Center is delighted to announce we will soon be opening Entre-space - a
place where entrepreneurial students can attend workshops, meet with
business mentors and campus advisers, network with other entrepreneurial
students, and work on their ideas and team projects.
Entre-space will be opening this fall and will be housed in the old
Theatre building. It will be available for student access weekdays from 7am - 11pm and will require EVERY student to scan their campus ID for
admittance.
Entre-space will feature work space, large community work tables, an
entire wall of white boards, and several small conference rooms.
We are extremely excited about this new space which will help foster an
atmosphere for creativity and learning. We want to hear your ideas on how
we can make Entre-space meet your entrepreneurial needs. Do you have a
specific entrepreneurial skill you would like to learn more about? Do you
know an entrepreneur we should contact to bring in for a CEO Chat? Let us
hear your thoughts!
