Mark your calendars for January 29th as we celebrate from 12noon - 5p the 1 year anniversary of the BMI: Black Male Identity Project as the Reginald F Lewis Museum!! I was honored to be part of such an amazing project and can't wait to see what the new year will bring.
See my contribution to this project here!
Also on the 29th is the opening of their new exhibit Dandy Lion: Articulating a Re(de)fined Black Masculine Identity which will be on exhibit January 29 – May 13, 2012.
Twenty emerging photographers and filmmakers present refreshing images of young black men who challenge popular notions of urban black masculinity. Guest curated by Shantrelle P. Lewis, this exhibition defies the negative image of the black male as “thug” and explores contemporary expressions of the “Black Dandy,” the sophisticated urban gentleman whose “swagger” engages both African aesthetics and elements of classical European fashion.

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.
