Join us during Bromo Art Walk to celebrate the launch of Ashley Minner Jones as Artist in Residence at BMA Lexington Market.

Explore one of the oldest known photographic processes, salt paper printing. Experiment with mixed media and collage techniques to add depth and texture to prints, while reflecting on your personal, everyday contributions to the unique city of Baltimore through time.

BMA Lexington Market is located in the Upper Market near the Baltimore Room at 112 N. Eutaw Street.

Ashley Minner Jones is a community-based visual artist and folklorist from Baltimore. Her interdisciplinary practice is deeply rooted in place—usually within the context of the U.S. South—and is focused on honoring and celebrating everyday people by lifting up their stories. Her artwork has been exhibited widely and is represented in several prominent collections. Her research is being archived as “the Ashley Minner Collection” in the Albin O. Kuhn Library of the University of Maryland Baltimore County. A monograph on one of her recent projects, a reconstruction of East Baltimore’s historic American Indian “reservation,” is forthcoming. Jones earned an MFA in Community Arts from the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) and a Ph.D. in American Studies from the University of Maryland College Park. She is an enrolled citizen of the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina.

The Baltimore Museum of Art at Lexington Market (BMA LM) Artist-in-Residence Program places six artists within one of Baltimore’s most historically layered public spaces. The program invites artists to serve as both practitioners and public-facing cultural hosts, contributing to an evolving conversation around art, community, and the role of institutions and public spaces in Baltimore City.
