Join Bowie State University and University of Maryland students in creating a community art piece! Create a drawn or collaged image and upload it to be digitally layered into a large community collage and printed onto banners.

This event continues an ongoing partnership between faculty, students and staff of Bowie State University and University of Maryland, which began with the Unity Mural collaborative art project created during NextNOW Fest 2017.

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!
