👀 If you actually were doing an “audit” to look for waste and fraud in the Federal Gov wouldn’t you use Accountants? How is a 20 year old tech bro qualified to do this work in any way?????

Cara Ober: “Being an artist is not about winning. It's being part of something bigger, being relevant." — Conversation Project NYC Cara Ober is a Baltimore, Maryland based artist, writer, teacher, curator and the founder of BMoreArt , a Baltimore-based online arts journal. Brett Wallace:  Where did your passion for art...

Art is a team sport. The audience’s active involvement is part of the purpose and process. I think forming connections is the purpose of art. I'm okay with that at this point. It's not about winning.

Artspeak and Audience: Art Writing as Bridge or Barrier - BmoreArt Artspeak and Audience by Cara Ober was commissioned by BmoreArt as part of Field Perspectives 2019, a co-publishing initiative organized and supported … Continued

Why is there a semantic divide between “art” and things that look and smell and act like art that are deemed not art? In an age with growing numbers of artists, why are cultural institutions decrying declining attendance and full-time art critic jobs disappearing?

Four February art exhibits that will restore your faith in humanity These art exhibits in Maryland will inspire you to dream big, bundle up and head back out into the real world, BmoreArt writes.

Is it me or is this winter extra bleak? Everything is freezing or on fire, the news is dire and toxic political absurdity is taking up way too much space in my brain.

The Baltimore Renaissance? This week, Baltimore's creative scene was profiled in Le Figaro, France's oldest newspaper, but the concept of a "Baltimore Renaissance" is false.

Politicians, business leaders, artists, and crusaders of all kinds can see that Baltimore has much that is not yet fully realized. However - the Baltimore where I live and work is NOT having a renaissance, so much as existing in a perpetual state of becoming.
