A Winter's Residence: Charles Carroll of Homewood's Town Houses, 1800-1816

A Winter's Residence: Charles Carroll of Homewood's Town Houses, 1800-1816

Presenting new scholarship on the town houses where Charles and Harriet Carroll, their children, and enslaved household members lived when not summering at Homewood, one of the most beautiful Federal-era country houses in the United States, this exhibition explores the rhythm and pattern of life in the seasonal move between town and country in booming, bustling, early nineteenth-century Baltimore.

A Winter's Residence is co-curated by Catherine Rogers Arthur, Senior Curator and Director of Artistic Property for the State of Maryland and former Director/Curator of Homewood Museum, and Lance Humphries, Ph.D., Executive Director of the Mount Vernon Place Conservancy.

The exhibition is included with paid museum admission and on view as part of the guided tour, or $3 for the exhibition only
