Their work, which you’ll find here on these pages, is the result of years of passion, collaboration, hard work, and a willingness to invent through thoughtful disruption.

Young Blood 2020 & 2021
ongoing through August 21
@ Maryland Art Place

Maryland Art Place is proud to announce the return of Young Blood, an exhibition showcasing the works of recent Baltimore-area Masters of Fine Art graduates. This marks MAP’s 12th Young Blood program which has, to date, provided an important post-graduate artistic platform for transitioning Masters of Fine Arts students. Since 2008 Young Blood has continually brought recent graduates together to make new connections and present special selections from their thesis project(s). The exhibition will highlight exceptional works ranging in media.

Young Blood took a brief hiatus due to the pandemic last year. As result exhibiting artists have graduated from their MFA programs in 2020, in addition to current MFA candidates (2021) were invited to participate.
