Pride at the lewis
Join us as we celebrate the Freedom to Love through poetry, music, reading and film.
Mix and mingle at The Reginald F. Lewis Museum with afro futuristic exhibits, poetry, short films, music, and refreshments during Baltimore Pride Week. The evening kicks off with a series of short films exploring themes on same gender love, coming of age, parental acceptance, and bullying screened by the Baltimore International Black Film Festival. A talk back about coming of age and growing into their own personhood will follow.
The Lewis Museum celebrates Baltimore Pride Week with a children’s story reading and art activity rooted in the diverse ways families show up. Hear a story reading of A Tale of Two Mommies by Vanita Oelschlager and Papa, Daddy & Riley by Seamus Kirst read by our partners from the Pride Center of Maryland.
