Art on Purpose, in partnership with Greater Remington Improvement Association (GRIA), continues our successful youth development and community-building initiative called Remington Youth / Community Radio (RYCR).
The 2009-2010 Art Leadership Program offers students from three schools (Afya, Civitas, and Baltimore Freedom Academy) opportunities to express themselves, develop skills, participate in a museum exhibition and event, and (for high schoolers) mentor middle school students, positioning them to be candidates for summer jobs in the arts.
Art on Purpose, in partnership with the Walters Art Museum, presents Heroes in Our Midst, a series of exhibitions and events that explore, uncover and celebrate the lives of contemporary Baltimore heroes. Presented in conjunction with Heroes: Mortals and Myths of Ancient Greece.
In partnership with The Baltimore Museum of Art, Art on Purpose presents an exhibition of community art inspired by signature themes in Poe’s writing. Work by Baltimore City residents is presented in conjunction with Edgar Allan Poe: A Baltimore Icon, the BMA’s artistic tribute to Poe.
