Want to see what Baltimore’s community organizations are building for the city’s young people, and have a say in what comes next? The Baltimore Children & Youth Fund (BCYF) invites you to its 2026 Community Exhibition, a free evening of live performances, interactive exhibits, food, and community connection at the University of Maryland BioPark.
The Exhibition transforms the BioPark into a walkable, two-floor experience where you can explore hands-on stations, watch live storytelling and open mic performances, check out a photo booth, and meet the people behind programs serving Baltimore’s kids and young adults. The whole evening is set up like a science fair for grown-ups, with real projects, real creativity, and real impact from organizations across the city on display at every turn.
Highlights include:
•Live storytelling performances and an open mic
•Interactive exhibits from organizations like CHARM, Nuestras Raíces, Expanding Boundaries International, the Equity Project Foundation, and more
•A Baltimore Youth Master Plan station where you can share ideas and help shape the future of youth programs in the city
•Youth performances and an opening program
•A photo booth, creative branding activities, and take-home keepsakes
•Food, dessert, and plenty of space to connect with neighbors and community leaders
Last year’s Exhibition brought out more than 250 people who left with new connections, new ideas, and nothing but good things to say about the experience. This year’s event moves to a bigger venue with two floors of activations and even more ways to get involved.
Whether you’re a parent, work with young people, run a community organization, or are simply looking for a meaningful way to spend a Thursday evening, BCYF’s community exhibition has something for you!
