‘Mr. Holland’
Valerie Sunderland, known for her
watercolor scenes of the Eastern Shore, where
she now lives, is coming home to Greektown
on Sunday, Nov. 2, for a special showing at
Ikaros Restaurant, 4901 Eastern Ave., starting
at noon.
While she grew up in a home “just slightly
east of what is now Bayview,” Sunderland also
grew up in Lou’s Bar.
“My father’s business was right smack in the
middle of Greektown,” she says, though her
family no longer has ties to Lou’s.
Sunderland fondly remembers bringing
classmates from elementary school to the bar.
Obviously, it was a different time.
“We could go to the bar and have fries and a
Coke,” she remembers. “They thought they’d
died and gone to heaven.”

From 1951-1985, Clarence Wroblewski, now
91, was band director at Patterson High School.
“We consider him our real-life Mr. Holland,”
says Yari Villanueva, a graduate of the
Patterson High School class of 1973, referring
to the sentimental movie, “Mr. Holland’s
Opus,” starring Richard Dreyfuss as a hardworking, much-loved music teacher.
“He directed, encouraged, mentored and
inspired legions of students, many of who went
into the music profession,” says Villanueva,
who himself now works for the Maryland
Adjutant General as commander of the
Maryland Defense Force Band.
He is currently retired from the U.S. Air
Force Band, with which he spent 23 years in
Washington, D.C.
He is not the only former student of
Wroblewski who went on to success in the
music business. Joe Compello, Villanueva
says, is “another successful band director in the
Baltimore area, and a composer of music for
elementary school bands.”

Teen to be tried as adult in Leto murder
BY STEPHEN BABCOCK
[email protected]
Alonzo Gorham-Ramos, charged in the
murder of Kim Leto, will be tried as an
adult a judge ruled last Wednesday.
Judge Philip Jackson of Baltimore City
Circuit Court announced his ruling before
Gorham-Ramos, now 15, as well as
members of Leto’s family.
“I feel like, now, justice can start to be
served,” said Kim Carrick, a close friend of
Leto’s.
Leto, 52, was found dead in her home at
409 S. Ellwood Ave. on Jan. 31. Police later
arrested Gorham-Ramos and Allen
Pinkney in connection with the case, and
found Leto was killed in the midst of a
burglary. Gorham-Ramos had already
been arrested for a burglary at the same
home in the summer of 2013.
Pinkney, who was 16 at the time the
murder was committed, is too old to be
eligible for the juvenile system, given the
serious nature of a first-degree murder
charge.
Since Gorham-Ramos was 14, however,
his attorneys from the Maryland Office of
the Public Defender made a motion to have
their client tried as a juvenile. At a hearing
last week, they offered testimony from an
expert witness that an adolescent’s brain is
less developed than that of an adult.
Reading his ruling from the bench on
Wednesday, Judge Jackson pointed out that
Gorham-Ramos’ stature–5 ft. 8, 170 lbs.–is
close to his own. Nevertheless, he said he
was convinced of the expert’s testimony on
brain development
Ultimately, however, the “most heinous”
nature of the crime outweighed other
considerations, Jackson said.
“This scenario is everyone’s worst
nightmare,” the judge said of the case.
In the ruling, Jackson alluded to both the
“brazen” facts in the case, and GorhamRamos’ past arrest for burglarizing the
home.
Though it means the case will continue
with a trial, Leto’s family expressed a
measure of satisfaction at the ruling.
Diane Posko, Leto’s sister, said she was
satisfied that the judge looked at the case as
a whole.
“I feel really fortunate that he looked at
everything and appropriately considered
everything,” Posko said. “It makes me have
faith in the justice system.”
According to court records, Pinkney and
Gorham-Ramos are both scheduled to
stand trial on Nov. 13. The proceeding is
scheduled for 9:30 a.m. in the room 226 of
Courthouse West at Lexington and St.
Paul.

Liquor Board fines Arcos, El Antro
BY ERIK ZYGMONT
[email protected]
In addition to Playbook Sports Bar and
Grill, two other Southeast bars faced
sanctions at the Liquor Board last Thursday.
Nicolas Ramos, licensee of Arcos
Restaurant, 129 S. Broadway, was fond
responsible for operating the restaurant on
May 7, without a valid license.
Att. Gary Maslan, licensee for Ramos,
mentioned that the license issue has since
been addressed, and admitted to the charge.
“He’s sorry for what he did,” Maslan said,
noting that the date of the violation was close
to Cinco de Mayo.
“His restaurant is a popular institution for
the Hispanic community,” Maslan said.
Indeed, it was Ramos who launched the
Upper Fell’s Point public Cinco de Mayo
celebration years ago. Ramos is a past
president of the Hispanic Business
Association and sits on the city’s Hispanic
Commission.
Weighing an appropriate punishment,
Liquor Board Chair Thomas Ward asked
Maslan, “This is the first time I’ve asked this,
but would you prefer a closure or a fine?”
Maslan referred that he would prefer a
fine, but Commissioner Dana P. Moore
disagreed.
“If I might, Your Honor,” she said, “He’s
already closed, so that’s no sort of sanction
whatsoever.”
During the course of the hearing, it had
come out that Arcos has been closed for the
last two months.
Convinced, Ward suggested a $3,000 fine,
with $1,500 suspended, for a total payment of
$1,500. The other commissioners agreed.
Two other charges against Arcos stemming
from Nov. 23 were dismissed. The charges,
from police, involved an alleged fight inside
the establishment in which four officers were
allegedly required to “prevent further fights
and disperse highly-intoxicated crowd.”
The other charge alleges that a “police
officer observed that patrons exiting Arcos
were highly intoxicated.”
As the officers involved were unavailable
to testify, both charges were dismissed by the
Liquor Board.
El Antro, 4020 E. Lombard St., also
received a fine at last Thursday’s hearing.
The board found the bar responsible for
being open past 2 a.m. on July 26, an incident
which resulted in two charges.
The board fined licensee Rory Yanes
$1,000 for each offense, but allowed the fines
to be levied “concurrent,” meaning that the
total payment was $1,000.
Yanes himself was not present for the
hearing, a circumstance which motivated the
commissioners to pass a “unanimous
resolution of the board,” said Ward, that all
licensees must be present for hearings
involving their liquor licenses.
Liquor Board Inspector Mark Fossler and
Police Officer Todd Brown had testified that
they entered El Antro on July 26 at about
2:30 p.m., a half-hour past the lawful closing
time.
“We saw 11 individuals in the bar area,”
said Fossler, adding that he counted five
beers in cups and two in bottles, and saw two
people in the physical act of drinking.
Witnesses for El Antro denied that any
drinking had gone on, though they did say
that not all beers had been properly picked up
and disposed of.
Antwon Randall, a security guard at El
Antro, told the board that the people on
premises after closing were his wife, motherin-law, her sisters and a couple employees.
Randall said that the group had been drinking
at a different club.
“We were going to drive them home,” he
said. “That was the responsible thing to do.”
“They were waiting inside the bar because
they didn’t want to wait outside, for safety
reasons,” elaborated Atty. Brian Everett,
counsel for El Antro.
Nevertheless, the board fined El Antro for
the consumption that allegedly took place
after hours.
“The fine was not imposed because your
mother-in-law was there,” Moore told
Randall. “It’s about the consumption of
alcohol after hours...so don’t blame your
mother-in-law for what happened.”

BALTIMORE GUIDE 5
Southeast the anchor for northward
development
BY ERIK ZYGMONT
[email protected]
Thanks in part to thriving southeast
Baltimore, areas to the north are receiving
new investment, Chris Ryer told neighborhood
leaders last week.
Ryer, director of the Southeast Community
Development Corp., attended a meeting of the
Fell’s Point Task Force—an assembly of
community association presidents from Fell’s
Point north to Butchers Hill—to give a highlevel summary of improvements underway in
several key neighborhoods north of Patterson
Park and east of Johns Hopkins, including
McElderry Park and the CARE neighborhood,
as well as the Patterson Park and Patterson
Place neighborhoods.
Through the state’s Baltimore Regional
Neighborhoods Initiative, a program
implemented this year, Ryer said, the
Southeast CDC—together with about 10
neighborhood-based and non-profit groups—
applied for about $1 million in funds and
received about three quarters of that.
“I think that’s pretty good,” Ryer said.
Ryer was invited by Del. Pete Hammen,
who chairs the Task Force and initially let the
Southeast CDC know about BRNI.
Hammen credits the approach with
revitalizing the Patterson Park neighborhood
several years ago.
“This is an experiment,” he said. “The
whole concept of BRNI is, if you could take
resources and apply them to a community
over a period of time, then you can tell if it’s
making a difference over a period of time.”
“It was sort of a step up in scale,” Ryer said.
“It caused us to take a new look at our work,
with new tools and new resources available.”
He elaborated on several projects currently
underway or soon to start through the 2014
BRNI grants.
Library Square, a green space to the
immediate west of the Patterson Park Branch
of the Pratt Library, is receiving a new
community center, Ryer said, as well as
lighting, signange, street furniture and fencing.
Through a separate initiative, the area will be
renovated with a rain garden, with considerable
help from Blue Water Baltimore.
The CARE (Caring Active Restoring
Efforts) community, roughly located between
E. Fayette and Monument streets, and from N.
Wolfe St. to N. Patterson Park Ave., will be
the site for extensive redevelopment, Ryer
said, noting that in 2010, the area had 700
rowhomes, 100 of which were vacant.
“We thought the blockage for redevelopment
in this area was a lack of access for construction
financing,” Ryer said. “We created a loan pool
with a non-profit bank.”
He said that the loans are for homes to be
sold for ownership, rather than for rent,
“because we wanted the money to come back
so we could use it again.”
Also with CARE, Ryer said, two nonprofits, Parks and People and Civic Works,
were hired with BRNI money “to manage the
appearance of the community.” The two
organizations, which Ryer said “do tremendous
work,” are building, planting and enhancing
sidewalks, trees, gardens and other landscape
features.
“They do these intricate things out of old
cobblestones and out of old railroad ties—it’s
really quite lovely,” Ryer said.
Also included in the BRNI implementation
is a renovation of the south side of the
Northeast Market, just east of Johns Hopkins,
for block parties and “neighborhood
marketing.”
Ryer described neighborhood marketing as
events in which visitors are introduced to
young couples. Conversations may unfold as
follows: “You should really buy a house here.
We love living here. Oh, here are our two little
kids.”
“It works,” said Ryer.
What the Southeast CDC and partner
organizations didn’t receive in this year’s
round of BRNI grants, Ryer said, was money
for marketing, public safety, or Main Street
programming.
How do these northern revitalization efforts
tie into southeast Baltimore?
“Our approach is called a strength-based or
asset-based approach,” Ryer said, explaining
that his organization chooses revitalization
target areas based on connections to stronger
areas.
The stronger area in this case is the
Southeast, in which the housing market is
back to the levels it saw in 2008, he said..
“We tend to work on the edges of good and
bad areas,” Ryer said. “That’s where we think
we’re most effective.”
He added that selling such an approach is
“always a struggle, because many people are
used to a needs-based approach, and we’re not
doing that; we’re using an investment-based
approach.”
“And it takes a lot of self-discipline, and
sometimes even some tough love, to work
through that in a community-based setting.”
Ryer continued. “But families move in; values
go up. They’re joining the middle class just
like everybody else.”

Republican hopeful Joh Sedtal hopes to reach across the aisle
BY ERIK ZYGMONT
[email protected]
With Election Day next Tuesday, Republican
Joseph “Joh” Sedtal is putting himself out
there, canvassing voters and hoping to gain a
seat in House of Delegates for the 46th
District.
Sedtal says that his biggest motivation for
running is his experience working for Del.
Wade Kach’s office, during which, he says, he
learned that “there were certain offices I
couldn’t go and talk to” because they were not
inhabited by either Democrats or long-serving
Republicans.
“People weren’t as open to going across the
aisle as they should’ve been,” says Sedtal, “on
both sides.”
“That was very upsetting for me to see.”
In such a setting, he says, only the
Democratic agenda gains traction, “while
Republicans are getting swept under the rug.”
The 24-year-old law student, a resident of
Fell’s Point, says he would be different.
“I’d like to be the person who’s willing to
be a mediator, essentially,” he says. “I thought
maybe I could be the one to work on
bipartisanship, and make sure the good ideas
go through.” For Sedtal, one of those good
ideas would improve education, he says.
Sedtal is in favor of adopting Baltimore
County’s AVID program in the city. In AVID,
an acronym for “Advancement Via Individual
Determination,” a middle-of-the-road student
with an average GPA might take a higher-level
course, while also enrolling in an AVID
elective, in which he is instructed, more-orless, in how to succeed in the classroom
through studying, taking notes and other
learning strategies, Sedtal says.
“It’s been wildly successful in Baltimore
County,” he says, acknowledging that
implementing such a program has costs.
“You’d have to pay for an additional trained
teacher at every high school in Baltimore, but
the payoff would be tremendous,” he says.
And Sedtal has some ideas about revenue,
outside of tax increases.
“We’re talking about over 40 tax increases
in the O’Malley administration,” he says. “It
keeps coming and coming.”
Instead, says Sedtal, the state should
consider legalizing, regulating and taxing
marijuana.
“We’re just missing out on revenue,” he
says.
Regarding harder drugs, Sedtal believes
that addiction treatment should be separated
from the criminal justice system, in which
those who slip up in the city’s “abstinencebased programs” often find themselves not
only relapsed but also in trouble with the law
all over again, he says.
“We need to make it strictly about health,”
says Sedtal of addiction treatment. “It’s about
making people healthier, and right now it’s not
about health, it’s about the penal system.”
Sedtal acknowledges that the Red Line is a
hot topic for this year’s election.
“As it currently stands, I can’t support the
Red Line as it is going to be,” he says. “It’s
going to be over budget, and we don’t know
where the money’s going to be coming from.”
He says that the plan should be “scrapped at
the moment” until better ideas emerge.
“Things like the Charm City Circulator can
work if implemented correctly,” Sedtal says,
adding that something similar to the Red Line
could work if funding could be secured and a
way could be found “to make it as least
intrusive as possible,” particularly to the Fell’s
Point and Canton communities.
Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 4, though
early voting is already underway. Vying for
the three seats in the House of Delegates, 46th
District, are Pete Hammen (incumbent), Luke
Clippinger (incumbent), and Brooke Lierman
on the Democratic side; Sedtal, Roger
Bedingfield and Duane Shelton are running
on the Republican side.

BALTIMORE GUIDE 7
Ahead of Ritz hearing, a summons snafu
BY ERIK ZYGMONT
[email protected]
Things have heated up ahead of tomorrow’s
Liquor Board hearing, in which the Ritz
Cabaret, 504 S. Broadway, will ask the board
for approval to expand the strip club’s exiting
BD-7 liquor license to the yet-to-be built
structure next door, which the Ritz’s owners
say will be an upscale steakhouse without
adult entertainment.
Last weekend, some residents who sent
letters to the Liquor Board opposing the
expansion received summonses in Liquor
Board Chair Thomas Ward’s name demanding
that they appear to testify at Thursday’s
hearing.
On Monday, the summonses were officially
canceled, “pursuant to the dictates” of Ward,
confirmed Michelle Bailey-Hedgepeth,
executive secretary of the Liquor Board.
The Guide emailed Bailey Hedgepeth
several questions about the summonses,
including how many were issued, and on
whose behalf they were issued.
Bailey-Hedgepeth replied only that they
had been canceled per Ward’s orders, and that
residents who had been summonsed were
notified by official letter that, while the Ritz is
still on the Liquor Board docket for Thursday,
they are not required to attend or testify.
Atty. Abraham Hurdle of the Law Offices
of Melvin J. Kodenski did not comment on the
origin of the summonses, but said that he
“would imagine” that they may have been
issued to establish whether or not the letterwriters were basing their opposition on
hearsay.
Hurdle has represented New Ritz Inc., the
company behind Ritz Cabaret, at several
recent community association meetings, at
which owners and liquor licensees David
Hitchiner and Joseph Soltas have sought
approval for their proposed steakhouse
expansion. It is likely he will represent the
licensees at Thursday’s hearing, though he did
not explicitly confirm that.
Victor Corbin, president of the Fell’s
Prospect Community Association, received a
summons for himself, individually, and as
president of the Fell’s Point Community
Organization, likely an error, as Joanne
Masopust is president of that association.
Corbin’s summons requests both his
appearance and documents from the
association, including four years of
membership records with addresses, “any and
all emails associated with the expansion of the
New Ritz and any parties involved,” and “all
corporate organization documents for the
Fell’s Point Community Organization.”
Corbin was angered by the summonses to
both himself and others, calling their effect
“chilling” toward those who wish forward
their opposition to a bar to the Liquor Board.
“I have people who are saying that they’re
not going to send letters to the Liquor Board
anymore,” he said.
Masopust concurred.
“It was a blatant attempt at witness
intimidation and an attempt to silence the
opposition,” she said. “In this city we have a
huge problem in the criminal field with
witness intimidation, and I don’t think this is
any different.”
BD-7 liquor license vs. restaurant license
The owners of the Ritz have visited the
three community associations in which their
proposed expansion would sit: the Fell’s Point
Residents Association, the Douglass Place
Neighborhood Association and the Fell’s
Point Community Organization. FPRA and
DPNA voted to support the expansion, both
on the condition that the owners of the Ritz
sign memoranda of understanding with the
associations to include the stipulations that
adult entertainment would never happen in
the expansion, and that no pass-through would
exist between the two buildings.
The Fell’s Point Community Organization
voted against supporting the expansion of the
Ritz’s BD-7 liquor license, and then voted to
support the expansion should the Ritz decide
instead to obtain a separate restaurant license
for the proposed steakhouse.
Hurdle has said repeatedly that his clients
do not intend to pursue a restaurant license,
but will seek the expansion of their BD-7.
The Fell’s Point Task Force, which includes
the leadership of the three above neighborhood
associations as well as others in the area,
voted unanimously last week to forward a
letter to the Liquor Board supporting FPCO’s
position.
Several nearby community associations-including the Fell’s Prospect Community
Organization, the Upper Fell’s Point
Improvement Association and the Butchers
Hill Association--have also forwarded letters
supporting FPCO’s opposition to the
expansion of the Ritz’s BD-7 liquor license, as
has the 46th District Delegation.
Corbin says that he is worried that a BD-7
liquor license, with no requirement to serve
food, could result in a “mega bar” in the large
space encompassed by the two buildings,
should the steakhouse fail.
Beth Braun, president of the Butchers Hill
Association, wrote: “If the intent of the
owners is to operate a steakhouse, it seems
that a restaurant license would be sufficient
for the purpose.”

Great Halloween Lantern Parade wows again
The Great Halloween Lantern Parade
and Festival drew a large crowd this
year, both for the pre-parade activities
and the march itself, which followed a
new from the Patterson Park Boat Lake,
past the Pulaski Monument, through
the park’s annex field and back.
This was the first year that the Creative
Alliance took complete creative
control of the parade, naming Maria
Aldana parade director. The Friends of
Patterson Park contributed to the event
with their band-management skills,
honed through their Summer Concerts
in the Park series.
The presenting sponsor of the free
parade and festival was OneMain
Financial. Bay Bank sponsored the kids’
costume contest, a perennial favorite,

BALTIMORE GUIDE 13
Jacoby Jones
The Ravens’ star wide-receiver Jacoby
Jones, known for clutch catches, didn’t
always have a football future, or so it
seemed.
“When New Orleans native Jacoby
Jones was a junior at St. Augustine, he
was told he was too small to play football,”
revealed Katherine Terrell of NOLA.com
| The Times Picayune in a 2013 story,
“Ambramson graduate Jacoby Jones
made the most of his chance in stunning
Ravens’ victory.”
Jones went on, Terrell wrote, to transfer
high schools to play ball, but his career
again appeared to end when he started
college on a track scholarship.
It was Jones’ mother, Terrell wrote, that
ordered him back into football.
Jones was wise to follow her advice. In
2007, he joined the Houston Texans,
gaining 562 and 512 passing yards in each
of his last two seasons, 2010 and 2011,
respectively.
It was with Houston that he recorded his
longest reception, 80 yards for the
touchdown, in 2011. That year, he put up
his largest per-game average yardage for
receiving, with 16.5 yards.
Some say it was a bad play against
Baltimore that brought Jones to the
Ravens. He was released by the Texans
several months after messing up a punt
return in a playoff game that Houston
would lose to Baltimore.
So far in Baltimore, Jones’ per-game
receiving average has been hovering in the
12 and 13 ranges.
Last year, Jones made several key
receptions, including a 66-yard touchdown
against the New York Jets. Later, Jones’
catch and touchdown against the Denver
Broncos gave the Ravens the tie (which
they broke in double-overtime) and
ultimately the advance in the 2013
playoffs.

70-yard touchdown pass from Flacco to
Jones was lauded by sportscasters across
the country. The rest of the game also
proved exciting, with the Ravens securing
their win thanks to a 47-yard field goal by
then-rookie Justin Tucker.
Jones scores points outside of football,
too. In season 16 of “Dancing with the
Stars,” he and partner Karina Smirnoff
made it to the finals. Highlights included
a score of three 10s for their Argentine
Tango in week 9. The couple finished
third overall for the season.
Earlier this year, Jones became a free
agent, but has since entered into a fouryear contract with the Ravens.

music teacher: Tribute set for November 9
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
Clarence Wroblewski specializes in the clarinet, but plays all instruments.
“He always said it was because of Clarence,”
says Villanueva.
Ray Disney and Tom Wagner, who have had
successful careers playing the trumpet and
trombone, respectively, were also students of
Wroblewski.
In addition to his lengthy post with the AIr
Force, Villanueva is also a longtime “Taps”
bugler, and even created a display on the
history of military bugling for the Arlington
National Cemetery, according to his biography
at tapsbugler.com. He also planned and led
musical honors for Wlliam Donald Schaefer’s
funeral.
But it wasn’t just those with natural talent
who were encouraged by Wroblewski, says
Villanueva.
“He was a very patient man when it comes
to teaching,” says Wroblewski’s former student.
“You had students that came in with various
levels of musical abilities...You had some
students who needed a lot of help, and he was
very patient with them.”
Highlandtown resident Leonora “Peachy”
Dixon, who waits tables at Sabatino’s and
writes on the side, remembers her former
teacher fondly, despite the fact that she didn’t
pursue a career in music.
“He was always a gentle person,” Dixon says.
She was in the classroom when Wroblewski
proposed to his Frances, his wife, who was
head of the school’s home economics program
and also taught classes on work study and trade
and industry.
“They were an item; they really were,”
remembers Dixon. “They were young and
beautiful.”
It is important to note that during
Wroblewski’s time, band and music were
central aspects of education and, generally, life
in Baltimore. In addition to his post as band
director and music teacher, Wroblewski
directed the Chorus of the Chesapeake and
performed with the Baltimore Park Band and
the now-defunct Baltimore Municipal Band
“Baltimore is the only city that has in its
charter that it has to provide music to its
citizens,” explained Villanueva, thought the
Municipal Band is no more.
Wroblewski’s main instrument is the
clarinet, but, according to his wife, “he plays
every instrument.”
Indeed, Wroblewski was organist at St.
Gerard’s Church in O’Donnell Heights and the
Immaculate Conception Church in Towson.
Likely, it was Wroblewski’s work at Patterson

High School that touched the most lives.
Villanueva remembers the spring concerts and
Broadway musicals.
“Thousands can still sing along to ‘Battle
Hymn of the Republic,’ cheer to the school’s
fight song, and, of course, be moved to tears by
the singing of the opening lyrics to the school
song, ‘Our Patterson,’” writes Villanueva in a
short bio of Wroblewski.
Former students of the esteemed teacher and
band leader have organized a tribute in his
honor for Sunday, Nov. 9, 4-8 p.m., at the Fifth
Regiment Armory on W. Preston St. in
Baltimore. The cost for the tribute, which
includes a hot and cold buffet, is $30, and must
be paid in advance. The deadline to RSVP is
Nov. 3.
Organizers ask that RSVP’s and payments
be made to Debbie Kufel Groff, class of 1973.
Mail checks to Groff at 906 Rose Ann Rd.,
Glen Burnie, MD 21060. She can also be
reached at [email protected].
Villanueva says that friends and former
students who cannot attend may still forward a
letter, photo or video for a “tribute board” to
Wroblewski. Villanueva may be reached at jari.
[email protected] or 443-801-5274.

Clarence Wroblewski, search for the event on

Ikaros: Art sales to benefit Mother Seton
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
Valerie Sunderland grew up in Lou’s Bar in Greektown.
Sunderland’s Eastern Shore scenes have a
tranquility to them, and her paintings of the
city, which she’ll bring to Ikaros on Sunday,
also emphasize the peaceful and the orderly
aspects of city life. As astronauts remark on the
perfection of Earth as seen from space,
Sunderland’s city-scapes are far closer to the
bird’s perspective than that of the rat.
“I was at my daughter’s house, up on the roof
with everybody else, and I thought, ‘Wow, this
is pretty cool; I’m going to paint this,’”
Sunderland explains. “So I did.”
A simple change of pace is another reason
she likes painting city scenes, rowhomes in
particular.
“It’s the antidote to the trees, marshes and
boats, which I love painting, by the way, but it’s
the other side to that,” she says.
Sunderland is also bringing her “postcards”
to next Sunday’s show. These are paintings she
did during her travels to Greece, Italy, out west
and more.
“They’re big postcards, but they’re
postcards,” she says. “They have so much more
meaning, as great memories of these travels.”
Sunderland is the highlighted artist of
Sunday’s event, which writer Rafael Alvarez
has taken to calling “The Return of the
Greektown Reading Series.”
Alvarez—who wrote for the Baltimore Sun
for over two decades, as well as for the
acclaimed series “The Wire,” and has since
been contributing to the City Paper and
Baltimore Brew, when not working on a new
book or promoting a published work—has
organized the event.
He will read from “Tales from the Holy
Land,” his short-story anthology of life in
Baltimore, much of which occurs in 21224.
As with most Alvarez events, he has enlisted
friends and colleagues. Don Corcoran, a
Philadelphia-based author, will read from “A
Road Paved in Iron,” which Alvarez calls “a
voodoo Western.”
“It’s a thank-you for him,” explains Alvarez.
“He had me read at his house when I did my
last do-it-yourself book tour. It’s how a lot of
this works. It’s like being in a garage band. You
play at my house, and I’ll play at yours.”
Rounding out the readers is poet Christine
Higgins, recipient of a Maryland State Arts
Council Award.

BALTIMORE GUIDE 17
Sixteen-year-old Bije Coxson, a senior at
Baltimore School for the Arts, will perform a
couple classical vocals, including an aria from
“La Boheme.”
“Classical is my favorite,” says Coxson, who
hopes to move on to a university or conservatory
next year. “It’s different from a lot of the stuff
you hear today, but it’s just something that’s a
part of me. It comes from my heart.”
Emceeing the evening will be WJZ anchor
Denise Koch emceeing the event.
Half of all proceeds from Sunderland’s
paintings will go to Mother Seton Academy, an
independent Catholic junior high school for
low-income students, located at 2215
Greenmount Ave. in west Baltimore.
“We don’t receive government funding; we
don’t receive arch-diocesan funding,” says
Sister Margaret Juskelis, president of the
school.
Mother Seton Academy students are
recruited through local elementary schools,
churches, organizations, “anyone who will help
us find children,” says Juskelis.
Prospective students must qualify for free or
reduced-price school lunches, and should
perform close to grade level. A Saturday school
program helps the school determine whether
certain students have the will to succeed,
Juskelis adds.
Mother Seton Academy receives one-third
of its budget from six supporting parishes; the
balance comes from fund-raising. Juskelis
says she is grateful that Alvarez and
Sunderland have decided to benefit her school.
“Any friends we can find who really believe
in our mission are a blessing to us indeed,”
says Juskelis.
Mother Seton Academy aims to get its
students not only into high school, but into
college. To that end, a Mother Seton staff
member visits graduates at least once a year—
often once a marking period—as they progress
through high school.
“Because we know the kids, we can point
them in the right directions,” says Juskelis,
noting that high school students are not often
aware of all the support—guidance counselors,
SAT prep, extra help—available.
Xenos Kohilas, owner of Ikaros, says he is
looking forward to hosting this Sunday’s
reading and art show at his restaurant.
“Rafael [Alvarez] is one of the most
valuable assets in southeast Baltimore when it
comes to, no just quality entertainment, but
also art and literature,” says Kohilas. “The
service he provides is food for the thought.”
