Programs Overview

Maryland Art Place (MAP) has been an anchor for contemporary arts in Maryland since 1981. Since its inception, MAP has effectively inspired, supported and encouraged artists in this region by offering exhibition opportunities, workshop and mentorship programs.

MAP creates a dynamic environment for artists to engage with the public, and each other, by nurturing and promoting new talents.

MAP offers a challenging schedule of innovative and diverse contemporary art experiences throughout the year. This includes the presentation of 6-8 annual exhibitions with complimentary programming including: gallery talks, performances and professional development workshops.

Annual Programs

8/21: Young Blood Artist Talk + Mentor Mixer
In acknowledgement of the closing of our 17th annual Young Blood program we are hosting a Walk + Talk Tour and Mentor Mixer in an attempt to connect emergent artists with peers, mentors, professors or artists who inspire, support or connect with their work. We see this as an opportunity for professional development where each exhibiting artist can host an informal artist talk/studio visit and use this as an opportunity to gain insight, invite critique,or perspective surrounding their work. As a result each artist will host a 10 to 15 minute artist talk to discuss their work and answer any audience questions. Please join us on Friday, August 21 from 6 to 8 PM for the Young Blood Walk + Talk Tour and Mentor Mixer. We look forward to celebrating our exhibiting artists.
