RTKL Lecture: Alexi Scheiber
April 15, 12:30-1:30 pm

The gallery will remain open until 5 pm following the lecture.

The CADVC gallery is also the site of the annual “RTKL Lecture,” a fellowship lecture made possible through the generosity of RTKL (Rogers Taliaferro, Kostritsky, & Lamb) Associates Incorporated. The goal of this merit-based award is to support an emerging artist of creative and scholarly excellence who has demonstrated a promise to make an impact on the field. This year’s recipient of the RTKL fellowship is Alexi Scheiber.

Audience members are respectfully requested to wear a mask during this event, so the speaker may remove her mask for optimal audibility and communication. CADVC realizes masking is a personal decision and ultimately lies with each individual.

Layered low-frequency tones shift between foreground and background, aligning with the visuals. The soundscape evokes the essence of the visited sites and the interplay of natural and industrial elements.)

Tomashi Jackson and Nia Evans: “Pedagogy Study Hall”

In collaboration with policy analyst and economic advocate Nia Evans, Tomashi Jackson’s “Pedagogy Study Hall” project will host a series of intermedia series of public discussions about investment and disinvestment in the arts and humanities, looking to Baltimore as a critical case study in grassroots organizing in a system of gross structural inequity.

Baltimore offers a critical forum for exploring a range of formal and informal organizational approaches to arts education and community development through the arts. It also provides an important model for exploring informal cultural economies that support local art education and production in the interstitials between, and in the absence of, major financial investment.

Public programs associated with this residency:

February 25, 6-7pm: Conversation with Tomashi Jackson and Nia Evans, Lion Brothers classroom, downtown Baltimore.

Sign up for limited spaces will be available via this hyper-link.

April 8 evening: conversation about structures of cultural support with Ryan Patterson, Nick Hartigan, and Denise Griffin Johnson, at the Lion Brothers classroom in downtown Baltimore.

Registration details will be announced.

April 15, live online, evening: Panel on public funding in arts and education.

Registration details will be announced.

All events are free and open to the public.
