Are you ready to start digging around to find what Baltimore's artists are working on this year? As you make your way through the artist portfolios, you can create exhibitions of your own by creating your Curated Collection for personal use or to share with the public. Also, we encourage you to share your questions or comments about the work on view by commenting on portfolio pages.

There are a few different ways you can begin to browse all of the portfolios and search for specific artists, mediums, keywords, etc. 

On the Homepage:
