The 5th Annual Transmodern Festival (Live.Art.Action) will be taking place this year on April 3rd through the 6th. Baltimore’s largest avant performance festival was also named “Baltimore’s Best Art Event” by the City Paper. The 2008 festival will feature over 50 artists and transform all three floors of Load of Fun studios with installations, performance, sound, film, mayhem, ecstasy, and radical culture. The festival will also present a special Sunday event, Pedestrian Services Exquisite, including a guided walking tour of North Avenue and beyond with site-specific, roaming, uncanny, planned/unplanned, and esoteric actions along the way.
