Beyond high-profile headliners like Queen of Funk Chaka Khan, the latest edition of Baltimore’s signature summer arts festival offers many ways to explore the frontier where art and tech collide.
Artscape, running Friday through Sunday, will feature live music, art, film screenings and technology-related exhibits like the landmark video game display Gamescape and a returning carnival-like lighting installation. Attendees can also engage with new products that seek to address some of the city’s most pressing disparities.
The annual no-cost outdoor celebration is put on by the nonprofit Baltimore Office of Promotion and The Arts (BOPA) with financial support from the City of Baltimore. With the festival coming up on 40 years, BOPA CEO Rachel Graham said planning for this landmark year is special and comes with a great amount of responsibility.
