May 8th: Exhibition at AREA 405 about the future of Jones Falls Opening
Hi everyone,
Please join us this Friday evening (5 pm to 9 pm) for the opening of CONFLUENCE: REIMAGINING BALTIMORE’S WATERWAYS at the Area 405 gallery in Baltimore (405 E. Oliver St). The exhibition opens May 8th and runs through Jun 12th. More details here.
CONFLUENCE brings together contemporary artists, local university students, and community voices to explore the past, present, and future of Baltimore’s waterways. The exhibition is part of the broader Jones Falls 2076 project, a year-long initiative imagining the future of the Jones Falls river through art, design, and public engagement, led by MICA designer Lee Davis, public artist Bruce Willen (creator of Ghost Rivers), and Johns Hopkins anthropologist Anand Pandian.
Jones Falls 2076 is a yearlong public imagination campaign to envision alternative futures for this river at the heart of Baltimore and ways of reframing our connection to the watershed. CONFLUENCE will showcase the work of leading environmental artists in the region, the creative work of students at Johns Hopkins University and Morgan State University, and the imaginative outcomes of the series of River Reimagining Workshops that we’ve held this spring with environmental advocates, civic leaders, designers, and engaged Baltimore residents.
Visitors to the gallery will have the chance to add their own river visions to the exhibit. Private tours can also be arranged, do reach out if interested. Please join us and help shape this ongoing conversation on the future of our waterways.
Hope to see you there!
