Celebrate the opening of Reverberations: Disruption and Healing Through the Hands of Elizabeth Talford Scott on the day of Elizabeth Talford Scott's birth, 108 years ago today.
Join us after hours in Baltimore's "Cathedral of Books" to celebrate the opening of Reverberations: Disruption and Healing Through the Hands of Elizabeth Talford Scott and the acclaimed quiltmaker's 108th birthday.
Meet student curators Ringo Lisko and Elijah Ramos from the Maryland Institute College of Art’s Exhibition Development Seminar, contribute your personal reflections, and enjoy a free cupcake.
The event also features after-hours access to the exhibition Ethel's Place: Celebrating Ethel Ennis, Baltimore's First Lady of Jazz.
This initiative brings together five museums and four university sites across Baltimore City for a reunion of artist Elizabeth Talford Scott’s work from February through May 2024. Students from the participating colleges—Coppin State University, Johns Hopkins University, MICA, and Morgan State University—worked on a presentation of Talford Scott’s work for their gallery spaces and organized a free public program. Under the guidance of 2023-24 EDS Instructor Deyane Moses, the students determined the curatorial direction of their presentation, drawing out connections to each organization’s collection, space, history, and/or audience.
