Maryland Art Place (MAP) is happy to continue KIDOOO, a youth version of Out of Order! KIDOOO was created as an opportunity for young artists to exhibit their work in a major arts venue, expanding MAP’s services to students in elementary, middle, and high school level arts classes. The opening of KIDOOO will take place in tandem with MAP's annual Out of Order event on April 11th, 2025.

Any artist is welcome to hang one original work of art on the first-come, first-served installation day of KIDOOO. This year’s theme for Out of Order is Barbarella: Queen of the Galaxy, based on the 1968 science fiction film. Artwork does not need to be on theme to be entered— but it’s encouraged!

No need to sign up in advance, just come by MAP’s 5th floor Gallery @ 218 West Saratoga Street in the Bromo Arts and Entertainment District! The open installation day for KIDOOO will take place on Saturday, April 5th, 2025 from 12 pm - 4 pm.
