Junie B. Jones Is Back For Spring Break!
by A.A. Cristi - Mar 1, 2018


She's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack! During SPRING BREAK ONLY, Main Street Theater is presenting Junie B. Jones Is Not a Crook!  Why is Junie B. such a favorite?  "She is such a quirky, witty and honest little girl!" says MST Theater for Youth Producing Director Vivienne M. St. John.  "Junie really wants to be good and do the right thing, but she always seems to land herself in to trouble. Kids love her because they can relate to her.  Adults relate to her because while some of the things she says can be trying, she reminds them of the children in their lives.  Junie brings a chuckle and a smile to all who read her stories or see her live on our stage!"

On Saturday, November 11, The Baltimore Museum of Art (BMA) is launching a series of free creative conversations and social events that brings together nationally recognized artists, writers, and thought-leaders to consider key ideas at the intersection of art, race, and social justice and imagining the futures we want. The Necessity of Tomorrow(s) speaker series will kick off with a conversation between acclaimed artist Mark Bradford and BMA Dorothy Wagner Wallis Director Christopher Bedford, who most recently collaborated on the BMA's presentation of the U.S. Pavilion at the 2017 Venice Biennale.
