Our Joyful Noise Baltimore (OJN)’s mission is to serve the essential human need for beauty and connection with art through free, high-quality, live musical performances for underserved and often forgotten communities in the Baltimore area. We envision a world where all people–regardless of economic situation, disability, challenge, or circumstance–have easy access to the life-affirming splendor of live music. One of our eight partners, Friends of Kirby Lane Park, is presenting their annual “Harvest Fest” with music, food, games, and more for the Franklin Square schools and neighborhood on Friday, October 25, 2024. The park is a beautiful community gathering place built on a former garbage dump in West Baltimore.
