BEAUTY WORTH PRESERVING

An exhibition by Mal Baker at the Environmental Center Gallery

Date of Opening Reception: Fri., February 4, 2022, 5:00 - 7:00 PM

Masks required for your safety!

“We live in a beautiful town surrounded by breathtaking nature and golden sunrises," says Malgorzata "Mal" Baker, a Havre de Grace based photographer, in describing her motivation for taking photos in this area.

In this special exhibition, Mal captures the picturesque natural beauty of our waterways, along with the iconic marine wildlife that lives here. Her focus also includes striking images of the variety of vessels that ply the waters of the Susquehanna and Chesapeake - many unique to this region. It is from the deck of a boat, captained by her husband, that she is able to create such engaging compositions, intimately connecting the viewer with the subject.

Aside from recognition in the New York Post, Washington Post, Baltimore Sun, Capital Gazette and WMAR news, her work has also been featured as cover designs on the former Havre de Grace Magazine and on local author Robert Lackey's book, Pulaski's Redemption.

You are invited to attend the show's opening reception and meet Mal!
