With 1,400 + attendees, 21 Visual Artists, 11 fashion designers, 10 featured restaurants & 11 awardees, the Baltimore Met Gala has done it again!
For its third year, the Baltimore Met Gala has tasked the Mid-Atlantic region with yet another theme: “Adam and Eve Enter the Garden.” As guests and designers uniquely interpreted this theme, a couture original paradise was brought to life— with dramatic headpieces, snake prints, pops of red, alluring apples, and all hues of green.
Hosted by Emmy Award-winning anchor and reporter Megan Rivers at the Maryland Live Casino on September 14, 2024, this year’s Baltimore Met Gala earned its largest attendance yet. It was a night to remember.

For the 2026 edition of the film festival, photographer E. Brady Robinson was commissioned to create a series of backstage portraits of the filmmakers, directors, and actors whose work appeared throughout.

The 2026 Baltimore Book Festival took place September 19 and 20 along Greenmount Avenue, centered on 30th, 31st, and 32nd Streets. It was free and open to all.
For four days this fall, the stretch of North Charles Street around the historic Charles Theatre will feel like the center of the independent film world.
