Celebrate Black History Month

There are many ways to celebrate Black History Month as we honor the lives and legacies of our African American residents. Oella’s Benjamin Banneker Historical Park and Museum and Hampton National Historic Site in Towson feature special virtual presentations and events all month long. Located in the Owings Mills branch of BCPL, the Hubert V. Simmons Museum of Negro Leagues Baseball can be viewed online until the library opens to the public.
