Bring your yarn. Bring your sketchbook. Bring that project you swore you were going to finish three months ago.

Craft & Cinema Night at Creative Alliance is a cozy evening for makers, movie lovers, and anyone who likes to keep their hands busy while the story unfolds. Settle into the theater, watch a great film, and work on your current craft project in good company.

Knit, crochet, embroider, sketch, stitch, bead, doodle, mend, or quietly wrestle with a tangled ball of yarn. All skill levels are welcome, and the theater lights stay low so you can still see what you’re making while you watch.

We're thrilled to partner with Craft & to host Craft & Cinema Nights. Craft & hosts crafting meetups and creative community events across Baltimore, bringing people together through hands-on art-making and connection. Follow them to discover more upcoming events!

Baltimore, the gallery walls are about to get very full in the best possible way.

The BIG Show
July 17–August 29

Creative Alliance’s annual members’ exhibition extravaganza is back, bringing together artists from across the city for Baltimore’s biggest community art exhibition.

The BIG Show gives Creative Alliance members the chance to showcase and sell their work in the largest selling gallery in Baltimore, connect with fellow local artists, and be part of a joyful, wildly varied snapshot of the city’s visual arts scene.

Come see what Baltimore’s artists have been making. Better yet, come ready to take something home.

Break My Game: In-Person Playtesting
Mon, Jul 13 | 6:00 PM
Hosted at Creative Alliance

Come playtest board games designed by local independent game designers and help shape games before they hit the shelf.

Ever played a game and thought, “This would be better if…”? That is exactly the energy. Break My Game gives players a chance to test new ideas, share constructive feedback, and help designers make good games even better.

No design experience needed. Just bring your curiosity, your game-night instincts, and your most useful opinions.

Playtest. Give feedback. Make games better. All are welcome.

Ever wanted to step inside someone else’s daydream?

Join us for an artist talk with Sebastian Sears about Grounded Captivation, Creative Alliance’s first fully immersive installation experience.

Grounded Captivation: Artist Talk
Thu, Jul 9 | 7–8 PM

Sears’ work moves through imaginary landscapes, other-dimensional societies, childhood memories, favorite films and TV shows, and the streets of Waynesboro, PA. The result is a strange, tender, and transportive world that asks what happens when memory, fantasy, sleep, and reality start talking to each other.

Outside the immersive space, visitors are invited to read, draw, or write as a way to gather their thoughts and re-center before returning to the present.

Come hear from the Baltimore-based visual animation and scenic artist behind the installation, and spend an evening inside the worlds he built.

Details on our site.

Tiny athletes. Big personalities. Zero interest in your human expectations.

The Amazing Acro-Cats
Jul 9–26

As seen on Netflix, this troupe of trained house cats, all former orphans, rescues, and strays, brings a 90-minute purrformance packed with feline feats, questionable obedience, and extremely earned applause.

We’re talking cats riding skateboards, jumping through hoops, showing off agility tricks, and occasionally reminding everyone that cats will do what cats want, when cats want.

Come for the acrobatics. Stay for the chaos. Leave with a renewed respect for the cats who run the world.

Tickets are live.
