Passenger drop-off:

  • Drive through the ¶¶êŽÉñÆ÷gate on Dulaney Valley Road.
  • Follow the road as it road curves around to the left, then take the first right. Go past the Dorsey parking area that is on your left.
  • When the road ends, turn left.
  • The road very shortly divides, with one fork going off to the right and another fork going a bit to the left. You want the fork that goes a bit to the left and up the hill towards the Alumnae/i House.
  • As you go up the hill, you will see several handicapped parking spaces on the left—on the opposite side of the road from that there is a gated (the gate is always open) driveway leading to the Athenaeum. Turn right into the driveway and proceed to the entrance to the Athenaeum.
