An Elegant Rendezvous with Joyce J. Scott: An Evening Song and Stories

Friday, June 21 | 8pm (doors open at 7:30pm)
VIP champagne toast with Joyce Scott at 7pm
Tickets ($50-$100) to benefit the Peale

The Peale Center is thrilled to launch its new performance and storytelling series, Elegant Rendezvous, with the legendary Joyce J. Scott. Inspired by an 1814 advertisement for the Peale, where Rembrandt Peale called his museum “an elegant Rendezvous for taste, curiosity and leisure,” this new series features Baltimore area creators and innovators sharing their work and stories.

Joyce J. Scott, world-renowned artist, educator and vocalist, launches the new program to benefit the Peale. Born and raised in Baltimore, Joyce is a descendant of African-Americans, Native Americans, and Scots, and pulls her inspiration from three generations of artists and storytellers. A Baker Artist Awardee and Macarthur Fellow, Joyce is well known for combining her variety of artistic skills with social commentary on issues such as racism, classism, sexism, violence, and cultural stereotypes.
