Maryland Hall for the Creative Arts, Arts center in Annapolis, United States
Maryland Hall for the Creative Arts is an arts center in Annapolis that combines exhibition spaces, a theater, and studio areas under one roof. Five gallery rooms of different sizes display visual work, while a theater accommodates performances and an Artist-in-Residence program provides workspace for creators.
Founded in 1979, this center converted a former high school building into a cultural destination. The transformation of that historic school structure marked the beginning of its role as a regional arts hub.
Four resident arts organizations call this place home, performing and teaching throughout the year. Their presence shapes the cultural identity of Annapolis and draws audiences regularly.
The center offers classes throughout the year in drawing, painting, dance, theater, and ceramics across winter, spring, summer, and fall sessions. Visitors can explore exhibitions, watch performances, or inquire about educational programs and resident company shows.
The Artist-in-Residence program provides working studio space for creators, going beyond typical exhibition and performance roles. This hands-on approach to supporting local artists sets it apart from standard venues.
