Shifting away from his previous focus on figures and portraits\, Davis utilizes the interior architectural space as a platform for surrealistic reimagining. By transforming walls and floors into narrative landscapes\, he creates immersive environments that invite viewers to step directly into the stories being told.  \n\n\n\nThese purposeful narratives confront the pressing issues of inequality\, discrimination\, racism\, and injustice\, intertwining them with history and culture. Davis’ work remains deeply rooted in the human experience\, specifically the Black experience as it relates to truth and identity. For Davis\, creating art for social change is a catalyst for the meaningful dialogue necessary to heal and find solutions to collective problems. Through these evocative spaces\, The Power Rooms examines the strength of a culture and the vital importance of reclaiming one’s history.  URL:https://outdoors.pgparks.com/event_list/tim-davis-the-power-rooms-opening-reception LOCATION:MD CATEGORIES:All Ages,Arts,Exhibition,Free,Public Reception ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://outdoors.pgparks.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/BAE-Tim-Davis-2-2026-600x400-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20270130T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20270130T200000 DTSTAMP:20260803T141539Z CREATED:20260803T141539Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260803T141539Z UID:10006196-1801328400-1801339200@outdoors.pgparks.com SUMMARY:A Lasting Vision: Alonzo Davis\, 1942-2025 - Opening Reception DESCRIPTION:A Lasting Vision is a career-spanning tribute to the life and legacy of Alonzo Davis\, a foundational figure whose influence resonates deeply across the American art landscape. \n\n\n\nThis retrospective explores the evolution of Davis’ practice\, from muralism to his iconic mixed-media series. Using bamboo\, paper\, and found objects\, he crafted a visual language that speaks to migration\, resilience\, and the interconnectedness of the human experience.  URL:https://outdoors.pgparks.com/event_list/a-lasting-vision-alonzo-davis-1942-2025-opening-reception LOCATION:MD CATEGORIES:All Ages,Arts,Exhibition,Free,Public Reception ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://outdoors.pgparks.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/BAE-Alonza-Davis-1-2026-600x400-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20270202T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20270202T210000 DTSTAMP:20260803T141539Z CREATED:20260803T141539Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260803T141539Z UID:10005937-1801594800-1801602000@outdoors.pgparks.com SUMMARY:Black History Month Book Discussion DESCRIPTION:Join us on a journey through the rich history of African American poetry.

This timely reflection on history is a physical comedy dive into the late Baroque and flaunts 18th-century finery\, wigs\, panniers\, gestural styling\, elaborate ornamentation\, and the excesses of Rococo. The characters navigate dangerous curves of manners and the Age of Enlightenment from the exquisite to the revolting. Happenstance has great fun puncturing one percent pomposity and presents the poignant possibility of change. \n\n\n\nPlease Note: All Publick Playhouse ticket sales are final.
