At Wide Awake, our mission is simple: empower artists, create opportunities, and build a thriving creative community in Baltimore. We take action to support local talent by providing a platform, resources, and direct artist-to-audience engagement. This year, we’re excited to give away an E-Bike, E-Scooter, a Focusrite interface, and donations from our Wide Awake artist community to further invest in creative growth.
We’ll also have incredible local food vendors:
Night 1 (March 21): Ekiben (Ethiopian-Asian fusion), Bambu (Vietnamese drinks & snacks), Thieves Den
Night 2 (March 22): Glizzys Wagyu (Wagyu hotdogs & burgers), Sistah Sweets (Baltimore’s best cupcakes), Zenjoy (refreshing tea)
