The Contemporary

Baltimore, MD

Programs.

The Contemporary focuses on three main program areas: Projects, Speaker Series, and Scroll.

We commission site-specific and subject-oriented projects that exist in public space and are in collaboration with artists and existing arts and non-arts institutions, organizations, sites, and spaces. All projects are free and open to the public.

Our annual Speaker Series, which is held at the Baltimore School for the Arts, features internationally-recognized artists, critics, and art professionals. Each year the theme shifts to reflect contemporary practices and trends. All lectures are free and open to the public.

Scroll is an annual publication that is produced entirely by our intern staff. Each issue of Scroll explores a different cultural topic related to the mission and efforts of the museum and is available, for free, in print and online.
