Join Stephanie Patrizio, UMBC Student Ambassador for Pedagogy Study Hall, as she presents her research and speculative proposal for heritage preservation in Turner Station entitled "Community at the Core: Libraries, Local History, and the Power of Grassroots Action – A Study of Turner Station." Stephanie was a research assistant to the "Pedagogy Study Hall" evolving timeline, focused on the public library systems of Baltimore City and Baltimore County. She will be participating via Zoom, but participants are invited to join us in person, in the gallery.

My research explores the community-driven efforts of historical preservation, environmental revitalization, and social justice in Turner Station, Dundalk. Once a hub of industrial activity and a landmark of African American and civil rights history, Turner Station provides a powerful framework for examining the impact of grassroots, community-led initiatives in education and revitalization, as well as the vital role of public libraries as hubs for hosting organizations and public programs that serve to preserve local history.

– Stephanie Patrizio

Stephanie Patrizio (she/they) is a 2025 graduate of UMBC's Visual Arts program. Originally from Crofton, Maryland and now based in Youngstown, Ohio, Stephanie explores the intersection of the fine arts and humanities with social and environmental justice. Inspired by the goals of the Pedagogy Study Hall project, their research highlights the work of dedicated community members in Turner Station, Dundalk, and their amplified efforts to preserve local history through archival materials, creative expression, and environmental advocacy.

This program is presented in connection with "Pedagogy Study Hall," a research project, exhibition, and publication by Tomashi Jackson and Nia K. Evans exploring the structures that sustain our cultural and educational systems.

This program is sponsored by the Wagner Foundation, the Maryland State Arts Council, the Baltimore County Commission on the Arts and Sciences and the Citizens of Baltimore County, and the Arts+ initiative at UMBC.

Featuring nearly 100 artworks, this first retrospective of celebrated Maryland artist Oletha DeVane traces DeVane's extensive career, from her early paintings and works on paper to more recent video artworks and interactive sculpture.

A prolific artist, wayfinder and storyteller, DeVane has spent decades learning and making art about the most profound phenomena of our human condition: spirituality, mythology, and transformative experience, including experiences of hardship. Over the last five decades, as she traveled in Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean, she became inspired by the stories and characters she encountered. Her artwork brings the unexpected to light, while finding new nuances in the old and familiar, and surprising intersections among those cultures.

A highlight of the exhibition is a large-scale carved sculpture, "Nkisi Woman-Universal Nkisi" (2021-22), which will be activated over the course of the exhibition by visitors who are invited to add beads to its surface. The nkisi is a Kongo cultural figure invested with sacred energy, and this sculpture will catalyze communion and community-building. The work reflects DeVane's fascination with how materials convey meaning and reemerge as myths and memories.

The exhibition also celebrates Oletha DeVane's collaborative activities. Her long-standing collaboration with poet and media personality Tadia Rice, Beyond Bars: Prison Women Speak, will be updated for the exhibition in the form of new video works.

"Oletha DeVane: Spectrum of Light and Spirit" is organized by curator Lowery Stokes Sims and is supported by the Maryland State Arts Council and Baltimore County Commission on Arts and Sciences.

Featuring nearly 100 artworks, this first retrospective of celebrated Maryland artist Oletha DeVane traces DeVane's extensive career, from her early paintings and works on paper to more recent video artworks and interactive sculpture.

A prolific artist, wayfinder and storyteller, DeVane has spent decades learning and making art about the most profound phenomena of our human condition: spirituality, mythology, and transformative experience, including experiences of hardship. Over the last five decades, as she traveled in Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean, she became inspired by the stories and characters she encountered. Her artwork brings the unexpected to light, while finding new nuances in the old and familiar, and surprising intersections among those cultures.

A highlight of the exhibition is a large-scale carved sculpture, "Nkisi Woman-Universal Nkisi" (2021-22), which will be activated over the course of the exhibition by visitors who are invited to add beads to its surface. The nkisi is a Kongo cultural figure invested with sacred energy, and this sculpture will catalyze communion and community-building. The work reflects DeVane's fascination with how materials convey meaning and reemerge as myths and memories.

The exhibition also celebrates Oletha DeVane's collaborative activities. Her long-standing collaboration with poet and media personality Tadia Rice, Beyond Bars: Prison Women Speak, will be updated for the exhibition in the form of new video works.

"Oletha DeVane: Spectrum of Light and Spirit" is organized by curator Lowery Stokes Sims and is supported by the Maryland State Arts Council and Baltimore County Commission on Arts and Sciences.

See our website for details about the exhibition and related programs.
