Kick-off your 2021 NextNOW Fest with a guided tour of The Stamp Gallery's new exhibit New Arrivals 2021, featuring works by Rushern Baker, Akea Brionne Brown, Faith Couch, Kei Ito and Edgar Reyes. The exhibition features seven artworks by five emerging and mid-career artists. All completed within the two years, the works come from artists connected to the Baltimore-Washington area.

This event is part of NextNOW Fest. The Clarice’s NextNOW Fest is an inspiring arts experience that celebrates imagination, creativity and community. By amplifying the voices of intriguing, inventive artists from around campus and our community, NextNOW Fest creates a forward-looking microcosm where art transforms our future and (re)connects us all.

NextNOW Fest is a signature event in University of Maryland's new Arts for All initiative, which leverages the combined power of the arts, technology and social justice to address the grand challenges of our time. In addition to our traditional student, academic and touring arts lineup at The Clarice on Sep 17 and 18, we’re thrilled to forge new partnerships with more student-led groups, academic departments and community organizations to expand the festival to seven days at sites throughout campus and into College Park!
