***** Urban Art Park - Design Contest ******

Entertainment & The Arts

Articulate Design LLC is currently in the process for transforming a 3 acre derelict space into an amazing ‘urban art park’. The park will feature a skatepark, outdoor amphitheater, roughly 40,000 sqft of urban art, and a potential incubator space, in addition to all the amenities of a community park. We aim to create a venue that serves a cultural hub and landmark for the city of Baltimore. The ongoing programing of the park will highlight the rich innovative spirit of the City, cater to the it's ever-growing creative class and increase tourism from the outlying geographic areas. The site of this future park is located in the heart of Baltimore’s arts and entertainment district and directly behind Maryland Institute College of Art.
