Redford, Huffington Coming to Baltimore

Robert Redford and Arianna Huffington are among the luminaries coming to town for this year's Americans for the Arts' Half-Century Summit, which is slated for June 25-27 at the Marriott Waterfront Hotel. Billed as “the largest gathering in the nation of arts leaders and their partners in creative business, education, and government,” the Summit is designed to “celebrate the accomplishments and advances of the arts over the last 50 years and bring together leaders from across the country to learn, connect, and discuss how to keep the arts relevant throughout the U.S. over the next half century.” Liz Lerman, Peter Sellars, Vijay Iyer, and John Waters are also scheduled to appear.
