SUMMARY:"The Game We Play" by Artist Oliver James
DESCRIPTION:The Game We Play is a new series from The Artist Oliver James. A play on “The Debt You Owe\,” a previous series about national wealth built on native land\, this new series aims to put the focus on Black towns\, cities\, and communities that disappeared overnight. An attempt at celebrating what was created\, but also a realization of a current reality in their absence. While there isn’t a monopoly on gentrification\, it’s a game that African Americans know all too well. A game of cultural\, mental\, and physical survival on the move. \nThis exhibit is on view in our Patricia Barland Gallery from February 25 to April 7\, 2026.

SUMMARY:She Speaks: Black Women Artists and the Power of Historical Memory
DESCRIPTION:The Banneker-Douglass-Tubman Museum proudly announces its newest exhibition\, She Speaks: Black Women Artists and the Power of Historical Memory–a visionary presentation that examines the 250-year history of the United States of America through a Black Feminist lens. This exhibition brings together a powerful constellation of contemporary Maryland-based and internationally recognized Black women artists whose deeply personal and politically charged works bear witness to the past\, illuminate its impact on the present\, and conjure Afrofuturist visions. \nThrough a diverse range of media—including collage\, painting\, print\, photography\, textile\, installation\, and time-based media—She Speaks acknowledges Black women as active participants in the making of this country rather than passive bystanders\, highlighting artists who operate as historians\, archivists\, and scholars to tell their stories. Presented alongside rarely seen archival materials and family heirlooms\, the exhibition highlights the pivotal role Black women have played in shaping and preserving this nation since the Revolutionary era\, while envisioning liberated futures through cosmic speculation. \nFeatured artists include Elizabeth Catlett\, Alanna Fields\, Dr. Joan M. E. Gaither\, Charlyn Griffith-Oro\, Khaleelah I. L. Harris\, Martha Jackson Jarvis\, Fabiola Jean-Louis\, Jeannine Kayembe-Oro\, Zsudayka Nzinga\, Ada Pinkston\, Beverly Price\, Faith Ringgold\, Noreen Smith\, Darlene R. Taylor\, Jessica Valoris\, Savannah G. M. Wood\, and Alisha B. Wormsley. \nAs the nation collectively commemorates the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence through coordinated national\, Maryland 250\, and Annapolis 250 initiatives\, this exhibition enters the conversation by expanding how American history is remembered and told. By retracing and reinterpreting these histories through the voices of Black women\, the exhibition challenges audiences to consider whose stories have been preserved\, and whose have yet to be fully recognized. \nShe Speaks is curated by Martina Dodd\, BDTM Curator of Collections and Exhibitions\, with curatorial support from Leslie Rose\, Exhibit Manager. Lending institutions include Academy Art Museum\, Galerie Myrtis\, Howard University Gallery of Art\, Washington\, D.C.\, James E. Lewis Museum of Art\, and Reginald F. Lewis Museum. \nShe Speaks will open to the public with an Opening Reception and Black History Month celebration on Saturday\, February 7\, 2026. The exhibition will remain on view through January 16\, 2027\, with interpretive programming offered throughout the year to further engage with the exhibition’s themes of history\, memory\, resistance\, and Black women’s enduring contributions to the nation’s cultural and civic life.

SUMMARY:"LINEAGE" Ballet Theatre of Maryland and Full Circle Dance Company
DESCRIPTION:LINEAGE\nBallet Theatre of Maryland and Full Circle Dance Company\nTogether for One Night\nTwo of Maryland’s top professional dance companies—Ballet Theatre of Maryland and Full\nCircle Dance Company—will unite this spring in a performance that explores ideas of heritage\nand legacy\, with special focus on the contributions of women. The show LINEAGE will be\npresented one night only\, Thursday\, March 12\, 2026\, at the Gordon Center for Performing Arts. \nBlending the grounded power of modern dance and the soaring sweep of ballet\, LINEAGE\nshines a light on mothers and matriarchs as sources of creativity and sustenance. Each company\nwill present works that illuminate the theme\, and dancers from both ensembles will share the\nstage in a rousing final work that will have the audience clapping and stomping along. \nLINEAGE will also invite members of the audience to participate directly in the artistic process\nin a small but deeply personal way. One of the works on the program features a quilt created by a\nlocal artist that reflects real stories of female ancestors. Before the performance\, audience\nmembers will be invited to write on bits of fabric the names of their own female ancestors. These\nfabric scraps will be inserted inside the quilt\, honoring the ancestors of the LINEAGE audience\nin a concrete way on the stage. \nLINEAGE marks the third fruitful collaboration between two companies that belong to different\ndance traditions but that share many values and creative interests. \n“Both of these professional companies are genuinely interested in innovating together\,” said Full\nCircle Artistic Director Donna L. Jacobs. “Ballet and modern dance diverge in many ways\, and\nthey are inheritors of many different legacies\, but they also share some important roots. In \nLINEAGE\, we can explore the great value in our differences as well as our common ground. It\nis inspiring\, and artistically enriching\, for us to be together on this journey.” \n“This collaboration is deeply meaningful to Ballet Theatre of Maryland\,” said Artistic Director\nNicole Kelsch. “Working alongside Full Circle Dance Company allows us to celebrate the\ndistinct voices of ballet and modern dance while honoring the women whose legacies shape both\nour lives and our artistry.  Ballet and modern dance carry different traditions\, yet both are shaped\nby generations of women whose creativity\, strength\, and resilience continue to guide us;\nand LINEAGE invites our audiences to reflect on this heritage—not as something distant\, but as\nsomething living\, shared\, and personal.” \n“The Gordon Center is thrilled to be the host and home for this creative partnership with the\nsupport of the Maryland State Arts Council Touring Grant\,” said Sara Shalva\, the Gordon\nCenter’s Chief Arts Officer. “This type of performance\, which blends styles and genres\, and\nbuilds relationships on stage and off\, is exactly the mission-centered work our Baltimore County\nBased performing arts center is called to do.” \nPerformance Details \nLINEAGE:\nBallet Theatre of Maryland and Full Circle Dance Company\nThursday\, March 12\, 2026\, 7:30 pm\nGordon Center for Performing Arts\n3506 Gwynnbrook Avenue\nOwings Mills\, MD 21117\nTickets: $15-$35\, https://gordoncenter.com/event/lineage/

SUMMARY:CP presents spring musical: City of Angels
DESCRIPTION:Book by Larry Gelbart\, Music by Cy Coleman\, Lyrics by David Zippel \nDirected by Beth Terranova\, Music Directed by Michelle Bruno \nPerformances are Thurs-Sat at 8:00pm\, Sun at 2pm \nA smart and stylish film noir musical. In the late 1940s\, Stine\, a bookish writer of detective stories\, struggles to adapt his crime novel into a workable screenplay. As Stine tries to maintain some integrity in the backstabbing world of Hollywood\, his protagonist\, a hardboiled private eye named Stone\, fights for survival in a city full of criminals and opportunists. With wit\, humor\, and a fantastic Cy Coleman score\, City of Angels captures the snappy dialogue of a Raymond Chandler novel and the glitzy showmanship of classic Hollywood; the result is a crowd-pleasing musical unlike any other. \nPlease Note: Contains stylized violence\, sexual innuendo\, infidelity\, and period-specific sexism and racism. Contains strong language.
