Description
Founded in 2024 by Leo Martinez-Diaz, Crow's Nest is an art incubator in Baltimore that provides studio, social, and exhibition space for artists addressing climate change and environmental justice through artistic expression.
In summer 2025, the Crow's Nest launched the Extreme Heat Fellowship to support the work of three Baltimore-based artists Rowan Bathurst, Kei Ito, and Rachel Stein in exploring the growing public health threat of extreme heat in Baltimore and urban areas around the world.
The fellowship artists worked in collaboration with researchers in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at Johns Hopkins University and will present their resulting works in artist talks and an exhibition at Crow's Nest.
Transportation: Van transportation will be available from UMBC. RSVP required to secure a seat.
This event is co-sponsored by CIRCA and the Department of Geography and Environmental Systems (GES) at UMBC.
