Baltimore-based artists are living proof that we exist in a City of Artists, brimming with creative excellence. Their vision extends far beyond studios, galleries, and museums. They capture our shared experience in diverse and beautiful ways, turn city blocks into magical discoveries, and remind us that everyone loves a soiree to share marvelous art. When given the opportunity, the art of our place and time brings a thoughtful beauty into our homes. It’s not decoration: it sparks conversations, it brightens our minds, it elevates our memories, it reminds us who we are. Their work reflects the stories, histories, and rhythms of the city, absorbing its energy, responding to its people, and leaving a mark on the places they move through.

For the past decade, BmoreArt has had the privilege of engaging with this magic through our magazines, online stories, books, partnerships, and exhibitions. As we grow and expand alongside these incredible artists, we are thrilled to celebrate ten years of print publications with Iconically Yours, a fall exhibition and benefit auction honoring the dedication, creativity, and collaboration that adds to Baltimore’s iconic reputation. This exhibit features twenty artists whose work has been featured by BmoreArt over the past decade, but more importantly, it offers a cross section across stylistic and conceptual barriers, of some of the very best artists making work in Baltimore today.

We encourage you to claim a piece of the city for yourself, revel in the magic these artists create, and remember that in Baltimore, creativity is everywhere you look. Iconically yours.

This benefit auction offers a rare opportunity to purchase artworks while directly supporting 19 artists in our community and BmoreArt’s work as an independent, regional platform for creative communities to share original, inventive works and ideas with new audiences.

All artworks are ready for your walls, shelves, pedestals, or for you to wear. The online auction can be found on BetterWorld. All bids must be made using the website. This is a silent auction.

Bidding is open now, and items close on December 4, 7:30 p.m.
