Art Space: Annual Janet & Walter Sondheim Art Prize To Be Awarded in August
Through Sept. 3, art lovers can view the works of this year’s finalists at The Walters Art Museum, where an award ceremony and reception will also take place on Aug. 10.
Art Space is a recurring element in the UpFront section of our print publication that spotlights a local artist or project making an impact in the city at large. Here’s what’s going on this month:
In August, the Baltimore Office of Promotion & The Arts (BOPA) will select the winner of its 18th annual Janet & Walter Sondheim Prize, which includes a $30,000 grant. Through Sept. 3, art lovers can view the works of this year’s finalists—artists Abigail Lucien, Kyrae Dawaun, and Nekisha Durrett—during the Sondheim Finalists’ Exhibition at The Walters Art Museum, where an award ceremony and reception will also take place on Aug. 10. Runner-up prizes include a six-week residency at Civitella Ranieri Foundation in Italy and a six-month residency at the Bromo Seltzer Arts Tower.
