Families can hunt for treasure, make projects inspired by gems of the past, and pose for pictures dressed as royalty. And admission to the Bedazzled exhibit itself will be free during the festival.
--On Sunday, the Baltimore Museum of Art holds its ArtBlast from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., featuring art-making activities on the theme of its exhibit Franz West, To Build a House You Start With The Roof. A concert by Milkshake kicks things off. Later, you can watch stilt walkers and enter a big hair contest.
