About this listen

On this episode of When Creatives Thrive, we feature Red Giant, an artist-run gallery, studio, and workshop, located in the Bromo Arts District of Baltimore City.


Red Giant’s mission is to create a platform for art and artists by curating exhibits and embracing their neighborhood to develop cultural offerings that bring opportunities to local creatives. They are powered by ideals of access, inclusion, experimentation, and community development.


We also discuss Red Giant’s participation in the Scout Art Fair at Artscape, and how festivals are emerging as a mainstream strategy to elevate art and connect with collectors. Festivals like Scout are also an effective way to get cities like Baltimore in on national and international art conversation.


In studio today are two of the founding members, Mary Gagler and Patrick Bell, with a big shout out to the third founding member, Stephen Callender.
