The Bakers Artist Award!
About the Award:
The William G. Baker, Jr. Memorial Fund established the Baker Artist Awards in 2008-2009 to recognize Baltimore’s artists and engage regional, national and international audiences in supporting these artists’ work. The 2011 Baker Artist Awards encourage all Baltimore area artists working in any creative discipline to register, exhibit their work, promote the site to friends, enjoy the broad public attention given to the site and compete for the Mary Sawyers Baker Prizes. The latest web technology is available to artists and the viewing public to better appreciate video, audio, image and text nominations. All site visitors are invited to logon as participants and to create a “favorites” exhibition, to comment on artist work and contribute to the site blog.
Mary Sawyers Baker, one of Baltimore's early philanthropists, studied voice as a young girl in Paris and embraced the arts throughout her life. She established the William G. Baker, Jr. Memorial Fund in 1964 to honor her husband, a well-known Baltimore civic leader. In 2007, the Fund narrowed its philanthropic mission to focus on arts and culture. In 2008, the Fund’s Board of Governors established the Mary Sawyers Baker Artist Awards in honor of its founder. Up to three prizes of $25,000 each are awarded annually to up to three metropolitan Baltimore artists, selected by a private jury. This year’s winners will be announced in March 2011.
