SUMMARY:'Holes' by Louis Sachar at Children's Theatre of Annapolis
DESCRIPTION:Holes\nby Louis Sachar \n  \nStanley Yelnats is under a curse. A curse that began with his no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather and has since followed generations of Yelnats. Now Stanley has been unjustly sent to a boys’ detention center\, Camp Green Lake\, where the warden makes the boys “build character” by spending all day\, every day\, digging holes: five feet wide and five feet deep. It doesn’t take long for Stanley to realize there’s more than character improvement going on at Camp Green Lake. The boys are digging holes because the warden is looking for something. Stanley tries to dig up the truth in this inventive and darkly humorous tale of crime and punishment–and redemption. \n  \nRun Time: Approximately 2 hours with a 15 minute intermission \nPerformance: February 6-22\, 2026 \n\nFridays @ 7:00 p.m.\nSaturdays @ 11:00 a.m.* & 4:00 p.m.\nSundays @ 2:00 p.m.\n\n* No 11:00 a.m. performance on Saturday\, February 7\, 2026. \n\n  \n** SPECIAL EVENTS **\n\nRelaxed Performance: 11:00 a.m.; Saturday\, February 14\, 2026\nASL Interpreted Performance: 4:00 p.m.; Saturday\, February 14\, 2026\n\nFor details regarding these special events\, please click here to visit our Accessibility web page. \n  \nTICKETS: $18 (Youth ages 0-12\, Seniors ages 60+\, Active Military)  /  $20 (ages 13-59) \nCLICK HERE TO BUY TICKETS

SUMMARY:Virtual Lecture – “To Feel the Happiness of Liberty”: Celebrating “Making” and 250 Years of African American Material Culture
DESCRIPTION:The Founding Fathers’ cries for liberty from tyranny and oppression resonated with African Americans and were embraced by Black craftspeople\, both free and enslaved. This talk highlights the profound contributions of African American material culture in the enduring pursuit of freedom. It serves as the culmination of the DAR Museum’s 2025 exhibition and the accompanying catalogue\, “Fighting for Freedom: Black Craftspeople and the Pursuit of Independence.” \nIn his lecture\, Dr. Torren Gatson examines how the ideology of “making” fueled the success of African American craftspeople while simultaneously shaping and reframing the very foundations of American identity. \nThe Historic Annapolis Virtual Lecture Series is offered free of charge thanks to the generosity of an anonymous donor. If you enjoy this program\, we hope you will consider becoming a member or making a donation today to support Historic Annapolis and our mission to connect all people with our shared history.  \nCan’t watch live? All lectures will be recorded. Please register and you’ll receive the link to watch the recording after the event. \nAdvance registration required; registration closes on half-hour prior to lecture.

SUMMARY:Reception for andamio | scaffold exhibition at the AACC Cade Gallery
DESCRIPTION:andamio | scaffold Reception\nDates: Wednesday\, February 4 – Thursday\, March 5\, 2026 \nOpening Reception: Wednesday\, February 11\, 2026\, 6:00-7:00pm \nPanel Discussion with the artists: Wednesday\, February 11\, 2026\, 5:00-6:00pm \nJoin us for the Cade Gallery’s spring exhibition\, andamio | scaffold\, which brings together the work of Maria Luz Bravo\, Gerardo Camargo\, and Wilfredo Valladares Lara\, three artists whose personal histories and collective memory are bound to migration\, labor\, and the evolving landscapes of identity. Their work—using photography\, sculptural forms\, and reclaimed materials—reveals how movement across borders and cultures shapes not only individual lives\, but whole communities. Using the scaffold as a metaphor for holding weight during times of change and as a frame for transformation\, the exhibition speaks to cities\, materials\, and bodies as traces of ancestral journeys\, social struggle\, and creative resilience. Together\, the works map histories of displacement\, hope\, memory\, and belonging across generations and continents. andamio | scaffold invites viewers to see beyond surfaces—into the labor\, memory\, and enduring spirit that reconstructs identity and builds new foundations of belonging.\n  \nMaria Luz Bravo’s (b. 1975\, Mexico) photographs examine the intersections of space\, politics\, and social resilience. With a background in architecture\, her practice explores the urban and architectural landscape as a lens to reveal broader social phenomena\, with a focus on cities in conflict\, contested political boundaries\, and the resilience of communities navigating instability. In keeping with this focus\, her recent series\, titled “Debris\,” captures the detritus—scraps of clothing\, utensils\, bags\, and other necessities—abandoned by immigrants making the perilous passage to the United States. Rejecting a longer view that might situate these discarded objects in a specific location or landscape\, Bravo instead turns her camera to the ground where her body is a corporeal reminder that this contested terrain was not always empty\, nor was it silent.  \n  \nGerardo Camargo\, born in Mexico City\, explores the use of techniques and discarded materials traditionally used in building construction. In so doing\, his work combines abstraction with the aesthetics of American architecture. Rather than making use of pristine materials\, Camargo embraces the marks\, cuts\, scratches\, fingerprints\, and other evidence of utility and manipulation to speak to the past life and energy—the hidden effects of labor—evident in these objects. In so doing\, Camargo creates alternative narratives that foreground the acts carried by bodies in motion\, bodies engaged in labor\, so often erased in architecture and our built environment. For example\, American Landscape combines a paint spattered wooden ladder with carved mountainous form as an evocative reminder of the human toil and labor behind nearly every aspect of the urban landscape. \nArtist\, educator\, and curator\, Wilfredo Valladares\, originally from Honduras\, has built a practice that bridges cultures\, histories\, and lived experiences. His work has long sought to elevate the voices and cultural narratives of Latinx and Caribbean artists through public cross-cultural initiatives. In his interdisciplinary work\, he has consistently brought together unusual materials with themes around memory and migration to create compelling new forms that speak to both personal and broader cultural narratives. In his recent series\, created specifically for andamio | scaffold\, Valladares uses recycled materials\, found objects\, and mixed media to examine migration\, labor\, and political displacement. As in Gerardo Camargo’s work\, the materials make visible histories of use\, wear\, and endurance\, reflecting the physical and emotional realities of crossing borders\, working in unfamiliar spaces\, and living with and in uncertainty. In works like Cruzando Sueños\, Valladares draws on a complex interweaving of abstract and representational forms\, with layered\, often ambiguous meanings that speak to personal and collective narratives shaped by border crossings\, deportation\, and systems of power. Making use of such disused and overlooked items as water jugs and bullet-ridden street signs\, these objects are reframed “as active witnesses to human labor\, resilience\, and survival.” \nImage Credits: \nMaria Luz Bravo\, Untitled\, from the series “Debris\,” 2023.  \nArchival pigment print on cotton rag\, 16 x 20 in. \nGerardo Camargo\, American Landscape\, 2025.  \nDiscarded wooden ladders\, carved discarded construction wood\, \ndimensions variable\, approximately 12 x 12 x 4 ft. \nGerardo Camargo\, La de la Falda de Serpientes\, 2025. \nDiscarded sandpaper from local construction sites\, marble stones\, tape roofing felt\, and discarded wood\, 80 x 45 x 15 in.

SUMMARY:Sanborn Map Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Do you LOVE maps\, buildings\, and history? So do we! \nHistorians\, preservationists\, and planners often turn to the a resource that was never meant to have such lasting value: Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps. Created from the 1850s through the 1950s to support fire insurance underwriting\, these detailed maps have become indispensable for tracing changes to buildings and understanding how cities and towns evolved over time.  \nRachel Robinson\, HA’s Vice President of Preservation\, will provide an introduction and lead a hands-on tutorial on using Sanborn maps. Rachel will guide you through the seven map sets available for Annapolis (1885–1921)\, explain how to interpret the symbols and color codes with the Sanborn key\, and show you how to explore maps from other communities across the country.  \nWe invite you to come enjoy hot cocoa and cookies as you dive into this pre–Valentine’s Day workshop! \nAdvance registration required.

SUMMARY:'Holes' by Louis Sachar at Children's Theatre of Annapolis
DESCRIPTION:Holes\nby Louis Sachar \n  \nStanley Yelnats is under a curse. A curse that began with his no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather and has since followed generations of Yelnats. Now Stanley has been unjustly sent to a boys’ detention center\, Camp Green Lake\, where the warden makes the boys “build character” by spending all day\, every day\, digging holes: five feet wide and five feet deep. It doesn’t take long for Stanley to realize there’s more than character improvement going on at Camp Green Lake. The boys are digging holes because the warden is looking for something. Stanley tries to dig up the truth in this inventive and darkly humorous tale of crime and punishment–and redemption. \n  \nRun Time: Approximately 2 hours with a 15 minute intermission \nPerformance: February 6-22\, 2026 \n\nFridays @ 7:00 p.m.\nSaturdays @ 11:00 a.m.* & 4:00 p.m.\nSundays @ 2:00 p.m.\n\n* No 11:00 a.m. performance on Saturday\, February 7\, 2026. \n\n  \n** SPECIAL EVENTS **\n\nRelaxed Performance: 11:00 a.m.; Saturday\, February 14\, 2026\nASL Interpreted Performance: 4:00 p.m.; Saturday\, February 14\, 2026\n\nFor details regarding these special events\, please click here to visit our Accessibility web page. \n  \nTICKETS: $18 (Youth ages 0-12\, Seniors ages 60+\, Active Military)  /  $20 (ages 13-59) \nCLICK HERE TO BUY TICKETS

SUMMARY:'Holes' by Louis Sachar at Children's Theatre of Annapolis
DESCRIPTION:Holes\nby Louis Sachar \n  \nStanley Yelnats is under a curse. A curse that began with his no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather and has since followed generations of Yelnats. Now Stanley has been unjustly sent to a boys’ detention center\, Camp Green Lake\, where the warden makes the boys “build character” by spending all day\, every day\, digging holes: five feet wide and five feet deep. It doesn’t take long for Stanley to realize there’s more than character improvement going on at Camp Green Lake. The boys are digging holes because the warden is looking for something. Stanley tries to dig up the truth in this inventive and darkly humorous tale of crime and punishment–and redemption. \n  \nRun Time: Approximately 2 hours with a 15 minute intermission \nPerformance: February 6-22\, 2026 \n\nFridays @ 7:00 p.m.\nSaturdays @ 11:00 a.m.* & 4:00 p.m.\nSundays @ 2:00 p.m.\n\n* No 11:00 a.m. performance on Saturday\, February 7\, 2026. \n\n  \n** SPECIAL EVENTS **\n\nRelaxed Performance: 11:00 a.m.; Saturday\, February 14\, 2026\nASL Interpreted Performance: 4:00 p.m.; Saturday\, February 14\, 2026\n\nFor details regarding these special events\, please click here to visit our Accessibility web page. \n  \nTICKETS: $18 (Youth ages 0-12\, Seniors ages 60+\, Active Military)  /  $20 (ages 13-59) \nCLICK HERE TO BUY TICKETS

SUMMARY:Valentine’s Staged Reading of "The Importance of Being Earnest" presented by Pasadena Theatre Company
DESCRIPTION:Fall in love with wit\, wordplay\, & mistaken identity this Valentine’s Day at a staged reading* of The Importance of Being Earnest. Oscar Wilde’s beloved comedy sparkles with romance and irresistible charm— the perfect excuse for a charming night out at the theatre. \nCandy grams and flowers will be available for purchase at the show. \nMake it a date night- paired with a romantic meal before or after the show at one of the many restaurants within a 10 minute drive such as Hana Japanese Cuisine\, Ruth’s Chris Steak House\, or Namaste Fine Indian Cuisine just to name a few. \n*A staged reading is a performance where actors read the script aloud with limited movement and minimal technical elements. There are no sets or full costumes—just great storytelling\, strong performances\, and the joy of hearing a play brought to life. \nTrinity United Methodist Church \n952 Patuxent Rd\, Odenton\, MD 21113 \nFriday February 13- 7:30pm \nSaturday February 14- 3pm
