Maryland Art Place (MAP) is excited to announce Out of Order (OOO),  MAP’s  Annual Spring Benefit Exhibition & Silent Auction, on Friday, April 11, 2025, at 6 o'clock in the evening. This year marks the 28th year of OOO. The auction will be both a virtual and physical exhibition and will be held in the MAP building located at 218 West Saratoga Street, just within the Bromo Arts District. OOO is a highly celebrated exhibition-event, and a ‘one-night-only’ opportunity for patrons and collectors to acquire contemporary art at unbelievably low silent auction prices.

MAP is happy to continue KIDOOO, a youth version of Out of Order. KIDOOO was created as an opportunity for young artists to exhibit their work in a major arts venue, extending MAP's services to students in elementary, middle, and high school level art classes. 

This year’s theme for OOO is Barbarella: Queen of the Galaxy, based on the 1968 science fiction film. Attendees of the event can expect light fare, open bar, DJ Mikie Love and drag queen Onyx D. Pearl on theme. Highwire Improv will be in the basement for the after party!

And let’s not forget KIDOOO, our signature (free!) kids Out Of Order for children ages 5-16. Located on the 5th floor! Please keep in mind our Elevator is currently being modernized and unavailable for transit during this event.

Come dressed to impress and join the celebration in support of local & regional artists. Tickets to Out of Order are $45 presale and $50 at the door. Tickets include light tastings and an open bar. All tickets also include free entry to KIDOOO, MAP's accompanying youth-driven OOO exhibition to be held on the 5th  floor of the MAP building the very same evening. This year KIDOOO is generously sponsored by John Meyerhoff & Lenel-Srochi Meyerhoff providing free entry for the parents of exhibiting KIDOOO artists.

Maryland Art Place, in partnership with Hotel Indigo Baltimore is pleased to present LIFE,  a solo exhibition by Maryland-based artist,Waymond Harrison. The exhibition is on view at Hotel Indigo, located at 24 West Franklin St. from March 4 - May 30, 2025.  A public reception will take place Thursday, March 27 from 5 PM to 7 PM. 

About the artist: Waymond Harrison is an artist whose life is a testament to transformation through creativity. From a young age, he found himself ensnared in a cycle of legal troubles, spending much of his youth in and out of juvenile facilities and prisons. It was in Los Angeles, at the age of 30, during a lengthy incarceration, that he first encountered the redemptive power of art. Surrounded by the starkness of prison walls, he began painting, using materials from the prison print shop, and immersing himself in the works of legendary artists like Picasso, Basquiat, and Kerry James Marshall.

Art became his refuge, a means of self-expression, discipline, and personal growth. Through painting, Waymond discovered a profound sense of purpose, channeling his experiences into works that speak to resilience, introspection, and the capacity for change. His journey reflects not only the pain of the past but the beauty of reinvention—a powerful reminder of how art can illuminate the path to healing and self-discovery.

Please join us on Thursday, March 27 from 5 PM  to 7 PM at Hotel Indigo  for the opening reception celebrating the solo exhibition of Waymond Harrison. Hotel Indigo is free and open to the public. Please visit Hotel Indigo website for hours of operation.
