BE PART OF A COMMUNITY ART PROJECT

Help Create the American Mosaic

What does America at 250 mean to you?

You can participate in the American Mosaic: 250 Visions Celebrating America's 250th community art exhibition presented by the Baltimore County Arts Guild.

Studios at 234 has a limited number of free 5" × 5" canvases for you to create your own design using paint, markers, collage, photography, words, or any medium you choose.

Just stop by The Reisterstown Welcome Center & Museum or Studios at 234 during open studios or ask a volunteer for a canvas while supplies last.

Any medium, any vision. Together, 100 canvases = 250 square inches, a mosaic as diverse as America itself. Once completed, your artwork will become part of a collaborative exhibition celebrating America's 250th anniversary.
