"Saturday with Sherlock": A Baltimore Tradition

 “He held up his candle before an extraordinary object...” (WIST)

Watson's Tin Box of Ellicott City is proud to co-sponsor, along with
The Six Napoleons of Baltimore and The Sherlockians of Baltimore, the annual November "Saturday With Sherlock Holmes" program at the Enoch Pratt Free Library in Baltimore, MD.

UPCOMING: THE 46th ANNUAL "SATURDAY WITH SHERLOCK HOLMES AT THE PRATT" will be held in 2025. Check back for details.

THE 45th ANNUAL "SATURDAY WITH SHERLOCK HOLMES AT THE PRATT"

This event was organized by Andy Solberg, BSI, and took place on Saturday, November 16, 2024, from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., in the Wheeler Auditorium of the Pratt Central Library (400 Cathedral Street, Baltimore, MD 21201). The theme was "Arthur Conan Doyle, Dr. Watson's Literary Agent." It can be found on The Pratt Library's YouTube channel HERE.

The 44th Annual program was held in November, 2023. The theme was "Mysteries in the Canon." Speakers included Carla Coupe, Ross Davies, Patrick Ewing, Matt Hall, Evelyn Herzog, Brent Morris, Daniel Thomas, and Karen Wilson. They presented on topics that Sherlockians, even after all our years of reading the stories, still find surprising or mysterious.

The 43rd Annual program was held on November 5, 2022.
From foggy London to remote Australia to the wilds of Dartmoor, there are many curious places in the Sherlock Holmes stories. Eight local Sherlockians talked about their favorites, including Sherlock’s home at 221B Baker Street; his favorite restaurant, Simpson’s in the Strand; the exclusive Diogenes Club; lovely Montague Street; dangerous Ballarat, Australia; Cheeseman’s, Sussex, home to a vampire; and misty, hound-haunted Dartmoor. It can be viewed HERE.

The 42nd Annual
program was held on November 6th, 2021.
"He held up his candle before an extraordinary object..." Who wears a deerstalker hat and carries a magnifying glass? Of course! It’s Sherlock Holmes. What other objects or things are important in the adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson? Eight local Sherlockians talked about their favorites, from bicycles and gramophones to photographs and vampires.  It can be viewed HERE.
