Conscientious Objectification
Baltimore Clayworks is proud to present the 2024-25 Lormina Salter Fellow Exhibition, showcasing the work of Kristyn Rohrer. Kristyn’s compelling ceramic sculptures blend process, design, and storytelling, reflecting on their Mennonite heritage while reinterpreting the nostalgia of Pennsylvania Dutch culture through a contemporary lens. This exhibition invites viewers to explore themes of identity, tradition, and transformation expressed through Kristyn’s unique artistic voice.
Shape, Shift & Mend
The 2024-25 EMBARC Fellow Exhibition features the thought-provoking work of Kashima Robinson. This exhibition highlights Kashima’s exploration of sculptural forms, mosaics like structures, tiles, and intricate containers that reflect themes of self-discovery and transformation.
Community Arts Summer Showcase
Celebrate the vibrant spirit of summer with Baltimore Clayworks’ Community Arts Summer Showcase! The work in the show is from our monthly session at the Maryland State Library for the Blind and Print Disabled. During these session Teachers from Baltimore Clayworks provide a multi-sensory art making experience for the blind and low vision attendants. Our staff have shared that their experience at the library has been one of reciprocity, stating that those involved bring them as much joy and excitement as they provide with their lessons.
Gallery and Shop Hours Tuesday-Saturday, 10:00 am – 5:00 pm, Sunday-Monday, 12:00 – 5:00 pm
