Hello my dear friends, I hope everything is well with you. My prayers go out to the family and friends who may have lost a loved one recently on the streets of Baltimore. I will try to talk about some things that will cheer you up for a moment.
If any of you are planning a wedding or an engagement party, stop looking. I have a perfect place for you that you may not even know exists. I am talking about the Historic Cloisters Castle, which dates back to 1932, with many architectural elements that date back even further which gives the house a much older appearance. The Castle features include a four-story spiral stair tower; chapel; cloistered garden; windmill; elaborate stained-glass windows and doors; multiple fireplaces; hand-painted murals; ornamental ironwork; and balconies. Now doesn’t that sound like a picture of beauty and a place to have an elegant event? Well, the Cloisters Castle invites newly engaged couples to kick off 2020 with a castle tour and meetings with local vendors at their Open House this winter.
Caterers, photographers, florists and more will be on hand to help with all planning needs to create the perfect wedding at this historic landmark of Maryland located at 10440 Falls Road in Lutherville, Maryland. Open Houses are scheduled for Saturday, January 25, 2020 and Saturday, February 8, 2020 from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. on both days. For more information, call 410-821-7448.

Baltimore has some of the greatest musicians— one of them is Mark G. Meadows, acclaimed jazz composer, pianist, vocalist, collaborator, recording artist, teacher and now actor. There is something for everyone in his music, which harmonizes pop, gospel, R&B, Hip-Hop, funk and jazz. Meadows, who released his third studio album “To the People,” in 2016, began his musical odyssey at the age of three with the gift of a toy keyboard. At age five, he started formal piano lessons under the tutelage of renowned Russian classical pianist and pedagogue Rosalie LeVant. Meadow is also an adjunct instructor at Shenandoah Conservatory and at the Duke Ellington School of the Arts in Washington, D.C., where he directs and arranges for the Mellow Tones. This remarkable musician in person will perform the music of Stevie Wonder at the Caton Castle Lounge on Hilton and Caton Avenue on Saturday, January 25, 2020 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. II will be a great show!
Well, my dear friends, have fun, I got to go, but remember if you need me, call me at 410-833-9474 or email me at rosapryor@aol.com. UNTIL THE NEXT TIME, I’M MUSICALLY YOURS.
