October in Baltimore
Happy October! This is the month to celebrate Halloween, but also to raise awareness for breast cancer. Breast cancer can appear in both men and women, and it is the second most common type of cancer among women.
You can raise awareness for breast cancer right from your home here at Anthem House! Partnering with The Brem Foundation, Anthem is participating in the “On Wednesdays We Wear Pink” campaign. Different treats will be available every Wednesday of the month, and #PenniesForPink will be collected for the foundation throughout the month of October.
On to Halloween, there are several events to attend all throughout this month to get into the spooky spirit! Here in Baltimore, there is no limit to the fun you can have, or events to dress up for.
Spooky Drag Events
If you’re a big fan of drag or drag shows, then these events are perfect for you! Enjoy bottomless drinks at the Halloween Night Drag Brunch on the 21st, hosted by house queen Robyn Yamen. Tickets give you access to the drag show and a brunch or lunch entree!
