Art as Response: A Conversation on Creativity, Community, and Change

What happens when art meets the moment? Join us from 11am-3pm for an intimate morning conversation with Baltimore artists whose practices are rooted in social transformation, collective memory, and community resilience. Featuring the work of Bria Sterling-Wilson, Edgar Reyes, Ayana Gordon, and Artists Against Apartheid, this moderated dialogue explores a central question: How does art respond to the needs, changes, and challenges communities face?

The Maryland Humanities’ Reaction theme examines how communities navigate upheaval, respond to change, and address persistent challenges across generations. This event invites you into an exchange about the relationship between creative practice and lived experience.

Come ready to listen, engage, and make something.
