Doreen Bolger has been the Director of the Baltimore Museum of Art for the past 17 years. She will retire from that position at the end of this month. Doreen’s impact on the cultural life of our community cannot be understated. She has been a forceful and effective advocate not only for the BMA, but for countless individual artists, and arts organizations large and small. Tomorrow night, folks are invited to gather at the museum to wish Doreen well as she ends her tenure at the BMA. This morning, she has been nice enough to invite Tom to her home in Charles Village, just a few blocks away from the museum.

The free community celebration to say goodbye to Doreen Bolger inside and on the front steps of the museum starts at 7:30. And on Saturday morning, beginning at 11:00, there will be a day filled with activities at the BMA to celebrate the renovation and re-installation of theAsian Art Galleries. The Jazz in the Sculpture Garden Series starts up again at the end of July. 

Audio for this segment will be available by the end of the day.

Host, Midday (M-F 12:00-1:00)
