Homewood House Exhibit Reveals Carroll Family Heritage
Judith Proffitt, former Frederick County Historical Society curator, now coordinates Homewood House Museum at Johns Hopkins. The Baltimore campus site showcases Charles Carroll Jr.’s country home with restored rooms, period carpets, faux marble, and a water-collection system. The exhibit “Traditions in Elegance” features 100 Norwich teapots on loan through March 26, plus Carroll family artifacts and stories of slave quarters, entertaining spaces, and family life in the federal era.
