Mission
OUR MISSION is to preserve and celebrate the rich history of early Chinese families in Baltimore, Maryland, through a comprehensive digital archive. Our mission is to collect, digitize, and curate historical documents, photographs, and personal narratives that illuminate the experiences, contributions, and cultural heritage of Chinese immigrants and their descendants in the region. By providing accessible and educational resources, we aim to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of the diverse narratives that shape our community’s history.
Red Thread Baltimore was created as a place to collect and share the stories, photos, and histories of our community.
About Us
It all started with a box of old photos from my dad’s house. Photo after photo uncovered the puzzle pieces of our unique Baltimore history. What are the stories behind these faces from the past?
