Art After Hours: Solstice

Baltimore’s favorite late-night art party returns to the BMA on the summer solstice with an evening of celebration, rebirth, and renewal. Inspired by the Turn Again to the Earth environmental initiative, Art After Hours: Solstice invites visitors to explore the galleries, including the new ticketed exhibition Black Earth Rising, and dance to the sounds of Afro-house, Latin, ambient, and Afrobeats curated by multi-hyphenate creative, DJ, and visual alchemist, MUSE(O)FIRE.
Meet artist Devin Allen and Lisa Snowden, Editor-in-Chief and co-founder of the Baltimore Beat, for an in-gallery talk exploring Heavy with History: Devin Allen and the Baltimore Uprising. Experience a capoeira movement ceremony led by healer, singer, and activist Sanahara Ama Chandra Brown and take part in an Ecological Fortune Cards session through Ripira with Valeska Populouh. Try a variety of solstice-themed cocktails and hors d’oeuvres by Baltimore’s own H3irloom Food Group. Learn about sustainable fashion and make a recycled brooch with fashion producer Caprece Ann Jackson and wearable artist Evette Monique Couture.
This event is for adults 21 or older. The price of admission includes one free food or drink ticket.
