About this Event
A poetic debut picture book, inspired by Baltimore, that celebrates community action.
Sometimes, a neighborhood feels forgotten.
But in the vibrant imagination of one young girl, there are dreams of a different city.
In her dreams, her city is a fantastic place.
And together with her neighbors, she can make it better.
More beautiful.
Safe.
Maybe Something Beautiful meets Something, Someday in this deeply touching ode to cities and urban spaces that reveals the transformative power of communal love, creativity, and hope.
