In 2023, Baltimore was one of eight cities awarded a $1 million grant from the Bloomberg Philanthropies Art Challenge and tasked to use public art to bring communities together. On Friday, the first work from the project, titled “Inviting Light,” will debut at the North Avenue Market.
The event will unveil Zoë Charlton’s “Third Watch,” a series of three illuminated pregnant female figures standing 7 to 9 feet tall. A group of Black women artists will perform a work called “More than Four Women for Four Hours” throughout the event as well.
