Join us for an evening of contemporary African American art and house music, presented by the Johns Hopkins University’s Billie Holiday Center for Liberation Arts.

Enjoy a lecture by Franklin Sirmans, Director of the Pérez Art Museum Miami, a conversation with Baltimore art fixture Leslie King Hammond and abstractionist painter Terry Thompson, and a reception. Each year, the center invites distinguished intellectuals and arts practitioners to address topical, historical, or philosophical issues connecting the work of the arts to the renewal and revitalization of civic life.
