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.

As 2020 comes to a close and we reflect on Creative Alliance’s 25th anniversary, we are certain of one thing: our gratitude for your enduring support. 

For two and half decades, the generous contributions and gifts from our members have helped us to bring Baltimore residents, families, and children an abundance of high quality free arts programs.

You have also helped us to re-ignite Highlandtown, strengthen our community through partnerships with other non-profits, and offered us the extra assistance we need each year to bring outstanding enrichment programs to Baltimore children who attend schools that don’t have funding for the arts. 

Our outstanding Film Curator Aaron Barlow (aka Betty O'Hellno and Rocky Horror host extrodinaire) corralled our questionably talented staff, drag queens, actors, otherworldly creatures, some rats, and the Creative Alliance Founders, and dressed everyone up to create a campy, zany film that will definitely crack you up! The film is followed by a LIVE performance with Outcalls streamed in high-def from our theater. This is as close as you can get to being at a live show with us! 

We hope you'll join us!! Look below for some extra interactive elements, like cocktail recipes, drinking game rules, and ART! You can also join in during the film by commenting in our new chat feature while you watch from home!
