Hello from IDbGLAM,
November is one of Baltimore’s best cultural months, and this issue starts there: a new look at modern art at the BMA, an Alicia Keys musical at the Hippodrome, Mahalia Jackson at the Pratt and a free family day at the Walters. Then we travel the Global Cultural Pulse from Tokyo to Miami Beach, and share what’s new on IDbGLAM, including a free Opportunities board for cultural jobs, RFPs and calls for artists.
