LOVE + ART
On Tuesday October 29th, at the Broom Corn Building, Ciroc Vodka and
Sonje’ Productions held a fundraiser for the Baltimore Love Project.
The Baltimore Love Project expresses love by connecting people and
communities across Baltimore City through love themed murals.
A few years ago, local artist Michael Owen developed a design of four
hands spelling out the word love. Now this image is painted on 20
walls, spread evenly across the communities of Baltimore City.
Ciroc donated over $1000 to support this program and raise the
awareness of their objective. Local artist Michael Owen and “For Rent”
boutique owner, Daniel Davis, painted autographed Under Armour
sneakers donated by NBA Golden State Warrior Stephen Curry and Portland
Trailblazer Will Barton. Both sneakers raised over $200 when auctioned
off. Some of Baltimore’s trendsetters and local talent were in
attendance to support the art community in Baltimore.
