Among exhibits being put on in conjunction with the annual celebration are two at Towson University's Center for the Arts.
The Holtzman Gallery houses Genesis of Form, a look at the starting concept for an artwork and the final result, featuring sculptors from TU, the Maryland Institute College of Art and University of Maryland. And Local Color, in the Center for the Arts Gallery, offers a juried show from 2009 Artscape visual arts entries, including photography, painting and drawing by artists throughout the Baltimore region.
Both exhibits run through Aug. 9 at the Center for the Arts, Osler and Cross Campus drives. For more information, call 410-704-2808 or go to towson.edu/centerforthearts.
