Preach! New Works by Jeffrey Kent is a solo exhibition held at the Frederick Douglass Isaac Myers Maritime Park. Baltimore-based artist Jeffrey Kent presents a new body of work that draws parallels
between the Civil Rights Movement and the ongoing debate over marriage equality in the United States.
“This [body of] work explores the premise that Americans, who fought to achieve justice and equality, now deny it” – Kent
The Maryland Institute College of Art’s current Exhibition Development Seminar is a yearlong course featuring a group of student curators, educators and designers working with the Frederick Douglass – Isaac Myers Maritime Park.
