AHOY CREW MEMBERS! We’re back! The Sunset Sail Series with Living Classrooms + The Local Oyster returns to the beautiful Baltimore Harbor, and last year’s sails sold out quickly, so grab your tickets early.

Join us for the first sail on Friday, April 30th from 6–8 PM aboard the Schooner LADY MARYLAND for a relaxing evening on the water featuring a happy hour spread from The Local Oyster, including locally farmed oysters, sustainably sourced shrimp cocktail, vegetarian snacks, and beer + wine from local producers.

Yacht Rock tunes provided by Nick’s Boom Box 🤠

Take in the views, learn a little local history, and even help the crew raise the sails.

21+ only. Tickets are limited, must be purchased in advance, and are non-refundable. If weather or safety becomes an issue, tickets will be transferred to the rain date: Thursday, May 7, 6–8 PM aboard the skipjack SIGSBEE.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JEN
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Some of you may not know this but Jen and I have been friends since the 1st grade and now we’re business partners. Sometimes we butt heads but I also feel lucky to have such an “OLD” friend that I get to work with everyday. Jen likes to tell people that she’s not as old as I am but today we are the same age!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for stealing the ship!
LOVE YA
