During the uncertain times of COVID-19 and social distancing, we kept moving forward and taking steps to save the Bay. Walk the Watershed allowed our community to virtually unite and explore new ways to connect with one another and the remarkable ecosystem we work to defend. Together we took a pledge to focus on healthy habits and a healthy Bay! With the support of people like you who understand and value the vital relationship between water quality and quality of life, we will not just save the Bay, we will keep it saved. If you're interested in sponsoring our 2021 event, please contact us at tdwan@cbf.org or 443-482-2111.
One Annapolis Community Art Project
April 6th through April 15th; Maryland Cultural & Conference Center, Annapolis
The Maryland Cultural and Conference Center (MC3), formerly known as Maryland Theatre for the Performing Arts (MTPA), is debuting a new vision for the Annapolis arts community with the One Annapolis Community Art Project. The project will feature a vibrant mural created by renowned artist Comacell Brown and will be painted on the wall adjacent to MC3’s StageOne at Park Place. The mural will memorialize Carr’s Beach, a historical landmark in the Annapolis community that became a major performing arts venue for Black musicians. Performances often attracted tens of thousands of people; its impact on the community was significant. Carr’s Beach hosted several notable artists including Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Ella Fitzgerald, Dinah Washington, Ray Charles, James Brown, Little Richard, Etta James, and Aretha Franklin. Today, Carr’s Beach is rarely recognized for its integral part in Annapolis’s rich cultural history.
