Telling the 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网 Story

Painting of John H. B. Latrobe.

澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网 began when a group of Baltimore’s leading citizens gathered to imagine a new kind of educational institution. Led by 22-year-old John H. B. Latrobe, they founded the Maryland Institute for the Promotion of the Mechanical Arts. As Latrobe later reflected, “The idea [of a mechanics’ institute] took my fancy greatly, and I thought it might be carried out, perhaps, in Baltimore.” From that moment, the foundation of what would become 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网 was set.

Looking back on that founding vision, we see how 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网’s history has been shaped by the lives and ideas of artists, educators, civic leaders, entrepreneurs, philanthropists, and innovators, people who shaped the College and were shaped by it in return. As we celebrate 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网’s 200th anniversary and step into our third century, we reflect on a legacy that continues to inform a vibrant present and inspire an even more ambitious future. Through the archives and through the voices of our community, 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网’s story comes alive as a living, evolving conversation.

Let’s tell the story.
