Arts Every Day was excited to attend long time Partner School Curtis Bay Elementary’s ribbon cutting celebration for their new mural, “No One Eats Alone,” created by students in collaboration with artist Jay Wolf Schlossberg-Cohen. We are thrilled to have supported this project alongside MSAC and are so grateful for continued partnership with this amazing school! We want to share a special thanks to Curtis Bay’s incredible art teacher, Ms. Hofmann, who brought this beautiful event together and consistently exemplifies the arts’ power to spread joy and build community.

Here is a sneak peek of our amazing teen vendors! Come through on Sunday May 31st from 1:30-3:30pm to support youth artists! Some vendors can accept venmo/cashapp but we also recommend bringing cash! This event is FREE to attend and open to all ages. Free pizza while supplies last.
