Midtownuda.org – is an upcoming art exhibit/auction event to benefit The Midtown Academy (a K-8 public charter school in Baltimore City) on Friday, December 5th from 5:30-9. Dave Ross is the board President and a CFH member. They will have a ton of quality contemporary artists from Baltimore and all over the country participating as well as Midtown students’ individual works from our art program that will also be up for auctions. The exhibit, “Uniting Diverse Artists,” was co-curated by MICA’s own curator and a Midtown parent, Board member, and artist in the spirit of advancing Midtown’s own mission to “unite diverse communities.”
Get your tickets here – http://www.midtownuda.org/Purchasetickets/Purchasetickets.html, and please forward on to others you think would have an interest (in art and/or in supporting a high-quality city public school). Dave would really appreciate all the help, as this is their first big fundraising event for the school!
