Based on the amount of poop Downtown, it’s pretty obvious a lot of you have dogs. Bring them to the Yappy Hour in Center Plaza on June 6 for a post-work puppy party.

Treats, pools, and toys will be available for dogs, and beer and snacks will be on hand for their owners. And we’d tell you not to forget a baggie and leash but we know you’re responsible enough to remember on your own.

In Baltimore, the food truck movement has seriously taken off. Crepes, naan, biscuits, lo mein, or burgers are being made in the back of trucks all over the city, every day. To track For a live feed of where the 35+ food trucks are stationed, visit the Charm City Food Truck site and stalk down your lunch.

Tomorrow at the Downtown Partnership’s State of Downtown Breakfast, a panel of notable Baltimore’s artistic leaders will sit down and discuss art in Downtown. The panel, lead by DPOB President Kirby Fowler, will cover the history, present state, and future of Downtown Baltimore as an art haven.

The panel participants are as follows. It’s a pretty cool mix of people from the art world, from the yet-to-be-built Chesapeake Shakespeare Co’s Lesley Malin to the more alternative EMP Collective’s Maggie Villegas.

Tickets are still available at the door for the SODT breakfast at the Radisson, or check back here for an update on the discussion.

PANELISTS

Jeff Daniel, Broadway Across America/France-Merrick Performing Arts Center

Lesley Malin, Chesapeake Shakespeare Company

Eric Hill, Downtown Cultural Arts Center

Say farewell to the National Pinball Museum- at least for a little while.

Moving for the third time in two years, the Museum had some difficulties with its land lords and will be leaving its Power Plant location.

If you haven’t been- go. Like, today. (It closes on March 3.) Even if you’ve never played, two hours of unlimited pinball for $15 bucks is a hard activity to beat.

Once you’ve played, we recommend mentioning to the staff that you’ll “be busy” for the next week or so. There isn’t enough free pizza and beer in the world to get us to help them move.

The Huffington Post sent some hard-hitting reporters to Baltimore recently to observe Berger Cookies in their natural habitat: Lexington Market.

They’ve been migrating south lately, cropping up in retail establishments in DC and it’s surrounding areas. Though integral to the local food chain in Baltimore, skeptics abound in the new territory, wondering  ”Is {DC} really ready to embrace a cookie that admittedly looks as if its fudge creme topping was slapped on by 5-year-olds hopped up on Mountain Dew?”

Should this aggression continue, our naysayers to the south should expect to experience incredible sugar lows as the Berger Cookies retreat back to their native land.
