About

Arts for Learning at Goodnow

Since 1995, the Goodnow Community Center at 5311 Goodnow Road has united the diverse community of Northeast Baltimore by providing meaningful educational and artistic enrichment to youth. Through programming focused on respect, honesty, cultural diversity, civic responsibility, and teamwork, the Center served as an anchor and inspiration to generations, establishing itself as a source of pride within the Frankford community.

Arts for Learning is proud to continue the Goodnow Community Center’s legacy as the managing partner in its building, on its basketball courts, and in its garden plots.

With a mission and vision centered in community, compassion, cultural understanding, academic excellence, and arts and recreational enrichment, we look forward to bringing together community members of all ages in meaningful and joyful experiences all year long at Goodnow, including youth summer and after school programs and community events.
