Join us at Art-AGstravaganza, where art and agriculture meet! All the fun happens Sat., October 10, 11am - 5pm at the Baltimore County Ag. Center (1114 Shawan Rd., Cockeysville, MD). It's free and open to all!

Spend the day enjoying a juried art show and sale featuring hand-crafted pieces, live music by bands Hop't, Sons of Riley and Midway Fair, delicious fare from local food trucks, beer and wine.

Plus, don't miss our first ever Chalk Art Festival. It's great for the whole family! Watch talented artists create farm-themed chalk art, or make your own. The fee to participate is $10 per spot. Participants will receive pastel chalk, and a designated place to create their unique work of art. Photos and drawings are provided for inspiration. Area businesses and Baltimore County and City schools are encouraged to work together as teams, and enter their designs into competition for cash prizes - 1st place, $500; 2nd place, $250; and 3rd place, $125.

Art-AGstravaganza works to connect art, agriculture and community in meaningful ways and is a partnership between Baltimore County Arts Guild, Maryland Agricultural Resource Council and Mural Masters, Inc. The event is sponsored by Northwest Financial Services.
