Programs
The Black Arts District is dedicated to the empowerment of Black creatives and their communities. We do this through our four primary focus areas: Events and Activities, Training and Development, Advocacy and Education, Creative Placemaking.
Historical Photography Project
This is a creative placemaking initiative being piloted in West Baltimore in partnership with T. Rowe Price, Arch Social Club, Druid Heights CDC, Baltimore Office of Promotion and the Arts, and Maryland Historical Society. The purpose of this project is to support the revitalization of West Baltimore by attracting people, encouraging reinvestment, preserving culture through storytelling, and celebrating its people and places.
Project RestART
Project RestART is an initiative geared to supporting and sustaining Baltimore’s cultural economy through an equitable lens. This four part program hires, trains, sponsors and provides opportunities for black creatives, as a means of restarting the black creative economy post Covid.
