We cordially invite you to join us for the first ever Baltimore Crankie Festival Open Crank! Perform with your peers, or sit back and take in the beautiful artistry of crankies made by artists and amateurs alike in the community!
Learn the Ecuadorian practice of Porcelana Fria ("cold porcelain") in this special floral workshop with the Creative Alliance's Artesana Zoila Gomez! Porcelana Fria is an easy-to-make material that is used for school program, souvenirs, mementos for baptisms, bridal bouquets, quinceañera cards, centerpieces, decorations, and many more. Come join Zoila and create hands-on flowery art just in time for Mother's Day!
Free Family Sundays: Make a Beaded Portrait

Kerplunk! is a free drop-in art class for younger kids and families held at Baltimore’s Creative Alliance. Join Kerplunk! every Saturday to create fun seasonal crafts and art projects based on current exhibitions. Learn more about classes.
