October Arts and Drafts

Baltimore Family Alliance and Waldorf School of Baltimore present: Arts and Drafts at Wico Street Beer Co

Join us for this unique experience where craft beer meets craft supplies! Parents may enjoy quality brews while artists of all ages create free handmade treasures while supplies last. 

Crafts from the Waldorf School of Baltimore --inspired by nature, eco-friendly, and appealing to all genders and ages -- will require various amounts of parental involvement. Helpers will be on site to facilitate. Young children will work together with their grownup. Older children may need help with just a few aspects of each craft.

FREE and no RSVP required.

Date: Sunday, October 20, 2024, 2:00pm - 4:00pm

Location: Wico Street Beer Co: 1100 Wicomico St, Baltimore, MD 21230

We will explore 14 highlights of a progressive Waldorf School of Baltimore Education, leaving time for a question and answer session at the end. This thirty minute bite-size zoom is the perfect starting place on your admissions journey. Hosted monthly throughout the year.

Parent and Child Classes

Hosted in four seasonal sessions: Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer

Parent Child Class is the perfect way to experience the magic of Waldorf with your child 9 months-3 years. You and your child will enjoy a warm and supportive environment that echoes the rhythms and atmosphere of our Waldorf Early Childhood classroom. Our Parent & Child classes are designed to help parent/guardians better understand and care for their young child, while allowing toddlers the chance to interact in small group settings and explore our outdoor and indoor classrooms.

The Fall Session runs for 8 weeks in October, November and December beginning October 18

Magical Moonstroll

Seeking a delightfully different sort of seasonal celebration this October? The Waldorf School of Baltimore has you covered with their new community event: The Magical Moon Stroll.

On Saturday, October 5th WSB joins forces with local artists, alumni, and actors to prepare an enchanted stroll which encapsulates all the wonder and magic of Halloween - without all the spooky stuff.

Following a lantern lit path, children and their caregivers will be guided in small groups through Waldorf’s outdoor classrooms for a whimsical living story, meeting magical and kind-spirited creatures while collecting natural and hand crafted treasures along the way. At the end of the Path, enjoy warm apple cider and a small sweet treat before departing.

Designed to be heartwarming and engaging to all, but especially for children 8 and under, children (parents too!) are encouraged to dress up in imaginative, media-free, preferably homemade/simple costumes and should bring a small treat bag or basket for treasures. Dress for the weather, as this event will be exclusively outdoors. Your evening will last approximately 45 minutes.

Cost: $7 | Babes in arms who will not be enjoying treats or treasures are free. Please choose your desired time slot when reserving your space and plan to arrive a few moments early, with ample time to park along Tamarind Road or Yellowood Road.

Stroll Times: 4:00pm, 4:30pm, 5:00pm, 5:30pm, 6:00pm, 6:30pm.

Sunday, November 17: The 37th Annual Waldorf Fair, 10am-4pm

The joyous atmosphere, creative crafts, artisan vendors, fun activities, and welcoming community of the Waldorf Fair attract hundreds of families from Greater Baltimore and beyond.

The Waldorf Fair is a celebration of community, family fun, music, local artisans, small businesses, and an opportunity for our school to showcase its beautiful campus and the unique spirit of Waldorf festivals. Guests arrive with joy and a sense of belonging, and leave with wonder, handmade treasures, and lasting memories.

Entry to the fair is free, so you can enjoy shopping from vendors, toddler storytime, live music, the instrument petting zoo, and explore our indoor and outdoor classrooms and play spaces. Tickets or a Punch Pass are needed for the many make-and-take crafts and activities, which range from 3-10 tickets in price. You can preorder tickets here.

Because the halls will be filled with excited children, we kindly ask you to leave your strollers at home. It’s best to carry or wear your littlest ones. We will provide a Quiet Room and a Toddler Lounge in our Children’s Garden for families needing a break from the festivities.

We can't wait to see you there on Sunday, November 17!
