GEOLOOM co>map is an online mapping tool that demonstrates how arts and culture is woven into Baltimore’s neighborhoods and social fabric. The goal of GEOLOOM co>map is to insure that every Baltimore community receives the attention and support needed to establish and maintain livability throughout the city. The tool is intended for a wide audience, including arts and culture organizations, urban planners, non-profits, researchers, community associations, activists, developers, artists, and residents. For more information about the GEOLOOM co>map, please visit www.geoloom.org. If you have any additional questions, please email info@geoloom.org.

The collection of artist data will help identify how artists, arts organizations, nonprofits, businesses, residents, and neighborhoods, can all mutually benefit each other. Artists can identify how to tailor their work to specific communities by learning about preferences, demographics, and needs of different neighborhoods. The map will include resources, workspaces, and exhibit and performance locations. Additionally, schools, organizations, and businesses will be able to identify individual artists that would be most appropriate work with them on projects. The tool hopes to aid in making connections between artists and opportunities with groups within neighborhoods and across the City of Baltimore.

The Baltimore Neighborhood Indicators Alliance (BNIA) at the University of Baltimore is the project manager of GEOLOOM co>map. Key partners include the Baltimore Office of Promotion & the Arts (BOPA), the Robert W. Deutsch Foundation, and the Greater Baltimore Cultural Alliance (GBCA).
