 The Cartoon Art Show: Baltimore Takeover! 

Nostalgia. Fine Art. Pure 90s Vibes. Baltimore, get ready! The Cartoon Art Show is officially headed back to Charm City for a massive, one-of-a-kind gallery experience. We are stripping away the rigid gallery rules and replacing them with cool art, cartoon and illustration style, and a heavy dose of childhood and 90s/2000s nostalgia. Whether you're a hardcore collector, a 90s baby, or just looking for the wave on a Saturday night, this is where you need to be.

 WHAT TO EXPECT
Featured Artist Showcases: Walk through a curated collection of high-end, exclusive pieces from incredible visual artists reimagining classic cartoon and anime culture. Game Night: We will have games, interactive art and more! Exclusive Merch & Vendors: Clean apparel, local creators, and limited-edition drops you won't find anywhere else. Curated Soundtrack: A live DJ setting the tone all night with a sonic backdrop that matches the visual heat on the walls.

 Date: Saturday, August 1, 2026

 Time: 7:00 PM – 11:00 PM
