After the success of editing and publishing City of Artists: Baltimore in 2024, our BmoreArt team created another significant publication bringing local, national, and international visibility to photography and poetry originating in Baltimore. This time, the book features portfolios from 40 of Baltimore’s best photographers and lens-based artists and 34 nationally acclaimed poets. All the artists featured, whether literary or visual, hail from the Baltimore region and combined, present a multifaceted view of a city where creativity flourishes, artists are nationally and locally relevant, and creative communities are strong. This publication was curated with collaborative support from the Baltimore literary nonprofit CityLit Project and photographers Devin Allen and J.M. Giordano.
