We’re still sweeping, but we can almost see the floor…

We are fast and furiously plowing ahead with the back warehouse renovation — floors are done; trim is up; the two studios are getting windows this week; the barn doors are getting hung inside; and the cabinets for the kitchenette are wrapping up — it’s hard to keep up, but we’re eager to open this area up to be used. Keep an eye on our instagram feed for regular updates.

Eighth grade engineering students from the St. Paul’s Schools came on site to take measurements so they can print Manor Mill in 3D!

We’ve had lots of community groups come to enjoy the space, hosting board meetings for Sparks-Glencoe Community Planning Council (SGCPC), Preservation Alliance of Baltimore County (PABC), the Hereford branch of the Baltimore County Library, Gunpowder Valley Conservancy, as well as smaller groups like the Parkton Moms club and groups of Girl Scouts. Looking for a space to hold a meeting or conduct a retreat? Email meetings@manor-mill.com.

Music!

We’ve had some great performances for our “Concert and Conversations” series, including Caleb Stine, Stringtown, the Park School Jazz Collective, and the Squeegees.

Check out our music page to get tickets for Two for the Road next Tuesday April 26!

And just announced! World-class musicians from the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, trumpetist Andrew Balio and pianist Lura Johnson are coming on May 3.

Ukulele classes start April 24; “Mommy and Me” Uke starts May 1; and a rhythm workshop starts April 27!

If you just want to just sit in a peaceful place to be filled with creative energy and surrounded by beautiful art, the Mill is the place to be.

Miss outdoor yoga? We do too! The loft is cleared out so that there’s even more space. Sign up for a class now!

“Hobbit doors” now stand between you and the tailrace in the cellar. Come check them out!

There are so many cool things on the first floor — woven baskets you can’t put down; faerie wings; marionettes; local honey products; amazing prints and cards by local artists; mill swag (of course) and so much more.

A bathroom, a bathroom! It’s true - a real sink, with real running water, toilets that flush, and doors that close. Black walnut, milled on site, was used for the slab for the vanity top and trim for baseboards and doors. A second bathroom upstairs is getting some final touches, and the last bathroom on the third floor will be framed out later this month.

Woodworking and Ceramics!

The kiln has arrived! We’ve also managed to procure a few wheels as well as two small lathes for turning. We hope to get all this running in May!
