Sidewalk Serenades: Close (But Not Too Close) Personal Concerts

Tue Mar 2

Creative Alliance staff came together in mid-March of 2020 and created a program to ensure that performance happened, and happened safely, in an environment where live performance seemed impossible. By the time the final Sidewalk Serenades note rung out, the program had placed 412 concerts on all corners of Baltimore and put over $65,000 back into the hand of the artists. This program created some real Baltimore magic thanks to you, the Baltimore community. The Serenades became a model for safe, equitable arts engagement during the COVID-19 pandemic. Cities all over the world were envious of how Baltimore came together to support its working performers. We know...because they called! And we shared how to start the program for themselves.

Important Leadership Update from Creative Alliance

Mon Feb 1

After nine years of service furthering the Creative Alliance’s mission, Gina Caruso has resigned as the organization’s Executive Director to pursue other opportunities.

The Creative Alliance has been fortunate to have Gina at the helm during an important period in our history—the transition from the leadership of our esteemed founder Margaret Footner; the programmatic planning and successful fundraising for our expanded space, the Creativity Center; and the more recent challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Gina has been integral to the Creative Alliance’s many successes during her tenure and leaves the organization on firm ground both artistically and financially.
