“I’ve maintained from the start that this inauguration is not about us – it’s about all Marylanders,” said Governor-Elect Wes Moore. “That’s why I couldn’t be more excited to celebrate with some of Maryland’s brightest artists and to welcome other entertainers from across the country to our great state.”
Leading up to the Swearing-In Ceremony, there will be an Evening of Faith and Community on Jan. 15. It will include performances from Gospel artists Anthony Brown & group therAPy, JJ Hairston and Yolanda Adams.
The People’s Ball: Celebrating the Inauguration of Wes Moore & Aruna Miller, will be held the evening of Jan. 18 at 7 p.m.
“From the Evening of Faith and Community to the Swearing-In Ceremony and the People’s Ball, these Inaugural events are a chance for all Marylanders to celebrate our state’s next chapter,” said Honorary Chair and Co-Chair Dawn Moore and Dave Miller. “We’re incredibly grateful to partner with these talented artists, and we can’t wait to see the magic their performances bring to each event.”
