In 2003, the Creative Alliance redeveloped the vacant Patterson movie theater into a neighborhood-based, multi-arts center that served as a revitalization anchor for Highlandtown in Southeast Baltimore, and has been offering timely programming to bring together a diverse community ever since. In 2014 and 2015, Creative Alliance co-developed the Neighborhood Voices series of free facilitated workshops to address personal, cultural, and structural systems that keep people of different races apart. Neighborhood Voices is just one example of Creative Alliance’s extensive community outreach in Southeast Baltimore; others include the Great Halloween Lantern Parade in Patterson Park and soon a new Education Annex currently under development across the street from the Patterson. This grant funded community outreach programs.
