We did it-thanks to you!

The BMA Ball and After Party was a major success thanks to our supporters and extended community. With your generosity, we raised significant funding in celebration of the BMA's 110th Anniversary.

Proceeds from this spectacular night will help us continue creating exceptional artistic and educational programs, while furthering our commitment to social equity throughout Baltimore and beyond.
