The '''Maryland Institute College of Art''' ('''MICA''') is a [[Private university|private]] [[art school|art and design college]] in [[Baltimore]], Maryland. Founded in 1826 as the Maryland Institute for the Promotion of the Mechanic Arts, it is regarded as one of the oldest art colleges in the United States.<ref name=":1" />

MICA is a member of the [[Association of Independent Colleges of Art and Design]] (AICAD),<ref>{{Cite web |title=Maryland Institute College of Art |url=http://www.aicad.org/schools/maryland-institute-college-of-art/ |access-date=2024-05-13 |website=AICAD |language=en-US}}</ref> a consortium of US art schools. The college hosts pre-college, post-baccalaureate, continuing studies, [[Master of Fine Arts]], and [[Bachelor of Fine Arts]] programs, as well as young peoples' [[studio art]] classes.

==History==
[[Image:MDINST.jpg|upright|thumb|"The Maryland Institute", above the old "Centre Market" on Market Place between East Baltimore Street and Water Street, east of South Frederick Street and west of the [[Jones Falls]] stream, home of M.I., 1851–1904]]

=== Maryland Institute for the Promotion of the Mechanic Arts ===

The Maryland Institute for the Promotion of the Mechanic Arts was established by prominent citizens of Baltimore, such as [[Fielding Lucas Jr.]] (founder of Lucas Brothers - office supply company), [[John H. B. Latrobe]] (lawyer, artist, author, civic leader), [[Hezekiah Niles]] (founder of national newspaper ''Niles Weekly Register'') and [[Thomas Kelso]].<ref name=":1">{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ZgodAQAAMAAJ|title=The Johns Hopkins University Studies in Historical and Political Science|last=Vincent|first=John Martin|publisher=Johns Hopkins University Press|year=1889|pages=63|via=Google Books}}</ref>

Other leaders and officers in that first decade were William Stewart (president), George Warner, and Fielding Lucas Jr. (vice presidents), John Mowton (recording secretary), Dr. [[William Howard (engineer)|William Howard]] (corresponding secretary), as well as James H. Clarke and D.P. McCoy (managers), Solomon Etting (local merchant/political leader), Benjamin C. Howard, William Hubbard, William Meeter, William Roney, William F. Small, S.D. Walker, John D. Craig, Jacob Deems, William H. Freeman, Moses Hand, William Krebs, Robert Cary Long, Jr. (architect), Peter Leary, James Mosher, Henry Payson (founder of First Unitarian Church), P. K. Stapleton, James Sykes and P. B. Williams. The [[General Assembly of Maryland]] incorporated the institute in 1826, and starting in November of that year (Tuesday, November 7, 1826), exhibitions of articles of American manufacture were held in the "Concert Hall" on South Charles Street. A course of lectures on subjects connected with the mechanic arts was inaugurated, and a library of works on mechanics and the sciences was begun.

The school operated for a decade at "The Athenaeum" (the first of two structures to bear that name, a landmark for educational, social, cultural, civic and political affairs) at the southwest corner of [[List of streets in Baltimore#Lexington Street|East Lexington]] and [[St. Paul Street (Baltimore)|St. Paul]] Streets facing the second [[Baltimore City Circuit Courthouses|Baltimore City/County Courthouse]] between [[St. Paul Street-Calvert Street|North Calvert]] and St. Paul Streets. This first Athenaeum was destroyed by fire on February 7, 1835, along with all of its property and records. The fire was caused by a [[Baltimore bank riot|bank riot]] due to the financial panic following the collapse of several Baltimore banks.<ref name="MICA Historical Timeline">{{cite web|url=http://webprod.mica.edu/About_MICA/Facts_and_History/Historical_Timeline/1824-1835_The_Beginning—Expanding_Education_in_Baltimore.html|title=MICA Historical Timeline|year=2009|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100610134048/http://webprod.mica.edu/About_MICA/Facts_and_History/Historical_Timeline/1824-1835_The_Beginning%E2%80%94Expanding_Education_in_Baltimore.html|archive-date=2010-06-10|url-status=dead|access-date=2009-08-30}}</ref>

In November 1847, Benjamin S. Benson and sixty-nine others (including many of the original founders of the former institute), issued a call for a meeting of those favorable to the formation of a mechanics' institute, which resulted in the reopening of the institute on January 12, 1848.<ref name=":1" />

The first annual exhibition was held at "Washington Hall" in October 1848, followed by two more. The 1848 officers were John A. Rodgers – president, Adam Denmead – first vice president, James Milholland – second vice president, John B. Easter – recording secretary, and Samuel Boyd – treasurer. The institute was reincorporated by the [[Maryland General Assembly|state legislature]] at their December session in 1849 and was endowed by an annual appropriation from the State of Maryland of five hundred dollars. In 1849, the Board of Managers extended the usefulness and broadened the appeal of its programs to ordinary citizens by opening a School of Design and an additional Night School of Design was extended two years later in the new hall and building, under William Minifie (from the Faculty of the old Central High School of Baltimore) as principal of the reorganized institute. Classes resumed in rented space over the downtown Baltimore branch of the [[United States Post Office Department|U.S. Post Office Department]] in the "Merchants Exchange".<ref name="1847-1878">{{cite web|url=http://webprod.mica.edu/About_MICA/Facts_and_History/Historical_Timeline/1847-1878_Renewal_and_Expansion_in_the_Industrial_Age.html|title=1847-1878: Renewal and Expansion in the Industrial Age|year=2009|access-date=2009-08-30|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100617121707/http://webprod.mica.edu/About_MICA/Facts_and_History/Historical_Timeline/1847-1878_Renewal_and_Expansion_in_the_Industrial_Age.html|archive-date=2010-06-17|url-status=dead}}</ref>

The [[Baltimore City Council|City Council]] in 1850 passed an ordinance granting the institute permission to erect a new building over a reconstructed "Centre Market", laying the cornerstone on March 13, 1851, with John H. B. Latrobe,<ref name="MICA Historical Timeline" /> and son of national architect [[Benjamin Henry Latrobe]], (1764–1820).

In 1851, the institute moved to its own building, built above the old Centre Market on Market Place (formerly Harrison Street) between East Baltimore Street (to the north) and Water Street (to the south) alongside the western shore of the [[Jones Falls]]. Centre Market continued to be known in the city as "Marsh Market" after the former Harrison's Marsh from colonial times. The building covered an entire block and had two stories built on a series of brick arches above the market, with two clock towers at each end. The second floor with the institute, housed classrooms, offices, shops and studios and one of the largest assembly halls/auditorium in the state.

During this period the institute added a School of Chemistry, thanks in part to a bequest from philanthropist [[George Peabody]], (1795–1869), (for which the [[Peabody Institute]] and [[George Peabody Library]] is named) and [[Baltimore and Ohio Railroad|B.& O. Railroad]] president [[Thomas Swann]], along with a School of Music.<ref name="1847-1878" /> Night classes for Design are added for men who work during the day, but would like training in Architecture and Engineering at night. In 1854, a Day School of Design opened for women—one of the first US arts programs for women. In 1860, the Day School for men opened, and in 1870, the Day school became [[co-ed]].<ref name="1847-1878" />

[[Image:1904Fire200.jpg|left|thumb|upright|The Maryland institute, after the 1904 Fire]]
For 79 years the institute remained in the location above the Centre Market, and its "Great Hall", large enough to accommodate 6,000, attracted many famous speakers and lecturers. It hosted events and shows related to the arts, and as one of Baltimore's largest halls, it hosted important events to the city and the region. In [[Election of 1852|1852]], it hosted both of the national political conventions to nominate presidential candidates [[Winfield Scott]] and his opponent [[Franklin Pierce]] (who was later elected 14th president of the United States).<ref name="1847-1878" />

During the [[American Civil War]], the institute was briefly an armory for the [[Union (American Civil War)|Union]] and a hospital for soldiers wounded at the Battle of [[Antietam]].<ref name="1847-1878" /> On April 18, 1864, President [[Abraham Lincoln]] gave his famous speech known as the "Baltimore Address" (or "Liberty Speech") during a [[Sanitary Fair]] held in the Great Hall to benefit Union soldiers and families.

On February 7–8, 1904, the Centre Market and the Maryland Institute burned down along with 1,500&nbsp;other buildings in downtown Baltimore during the [[Great Baltimore Fire]].<ref name="1847-1878" /> Temporarily, classes moved to spaces above other covered municipal markets in the city, while construction was ongoing in two locations. Michael Jenkins donated the future site of the "Main Building" on Mount Royal Avenue near the new [[Bolton Hill, Baltimore|Bolton Hill]] neighborhood in the northwest, which opened in 1908. It was to house the School of Art and Design, and the City of Baltimore offered the old site and funding to rebuild the Centre Market as a location for the Drafting school and "mechanical arts".<ref name="1905-1960">{{cite web |title=1905-1960: A Fresh Start—Rise of Mount Royal Campus |year=2009 |url=http://webprod.mica.edu/About_MICA/Facts_and_History/Historical_Timeline/1905-1960_A_Fresh_Start—Rise_of_Mount_Royal_Campus.html |access-date=2009-08-30 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120226215801/http://webprod.mica.edu/About_MICA/Facts_and_History/Historical_Timeline/1905-1960_A_Fresh_Start%E2%80%94Rise_of_Mount_Royal_Campus.html |archive-date=2012-02-26 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

Upon opening, the Main building had spaces for pottery, metal working, wood carving, free-hand drafting and textile design, as well as a library, galleries and exhibition rooms. The galleries and exhibition rooms were important, because at the time of construction, Baltimore had no public art museum (institutions such as the [[Walters Art Museum|Walters Art Gallery]] were not founded and opened for regular public viewing until 1909 and acquired by the city in 1934, and the [[Baltimore Museum of Art]], in 1914).

In 1923, the institute's galleries hosted the first known public showing of [[Henri Matisse]]'s work in the United States, brought from Europe by sisters Claribel and Etta Cone.<ref name="1905-1960" /> In 1928, the new Centre Market building, now known as "The Market Place" building, offered a course in Aeronautics theory and drafting following the great excitement and increase in interest in the industry following [[Charles Lindbergh]]'s flight over the Atlantic Ocean to Paris.

=== Maryland Institute, College of Art ===

The institute legally changed its name to the "Maryland Institute, College of Art" in 1959, and the "Market Place Building" was razed to make room for the extension south of the [[Jones Falls Expressway]] (Interstate 83).<ref name="1905-1960" /> The consolidation of MICA to the Mount Royal campus was furthered by the purchase of the [[Mount Royal Station (Maryland Institute College of Art)|Mount Royal Station]], a former [[Baltimore and Ohio Railroad]] (B&O) train station, in 1964. In 1968, MICA was forced to close due to the [[Baltimore riot of 1968]], which broke out two days after the April 4 [[assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.]] in [[Memphis, Tennessee]].

From 1972 to 1975, MICA was graced with the presence of artists and critics of the period, including composer [[John Cage]], poet [[Allen Ginsberg]], photographer [[Walker Evans]], master printer [[Kenneth E. Tyler]], painter [[Elaine de Kooning]] and art critic [[Clement Greenberg]].<ref>{{cite web|title=1961-1977: Rapid Strides Forward—Becoming a College|year=2009|url=http://webprod.mica.edu/About_MICA/Facts_and_History/Historical_Timeline/1961-1977_Rapid_Strides_Forward—Becoming_a_College.html|access-date=2009-08-30|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120226215938/http://webprod.mica.edu/About_MICA/Facts_and_History/Historical_Timeline/1961-1977_Rapid_Strides_Forward%E2%80%94Becoming_a_College.html|archive-date=2012-02-26|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In the following years, MICA expanded along Mount Royal Avenue, adding the "Fox Building" in 1978, the "College Center" (now the "Art Tech Center") in 1986, a renovation of the "Main Building" in 1990, "The Commons" (added 1992), "Bunting Center" (1998), the "Meyerhoff House" (2002), the "Brown Center" (2003), the "Studio Center" (2007) and "The Gateway" (2008). During that time, the college focused on increased interaction with the international art world—offering study abroad programs and residences in numerous countries around the world.

The school's logo was redesigned in 2007 by [[J. Abbott Miller|Abbott Miller]] of [[Pentagram (design firm)|Pentagram]] and is said to be a "visual reference to the architecture" found at the 1907 Main Building and 2003 Brown Center.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.baltimoresun.com/news/bs-xpm-2007-04-01-0704010197-story.html|title=Brand-new logo, $75,000; MICA's explanation, priceless|last=Vozzella|first=Laura|date=2007-04-01|website=The Baltimore Sun|language=en-US|access-date=2018-12-29}}</ref>

MICA's campus is a mixture of buildings from different periods of Baltimore's development.

[[File:MICA entry hall MD1.jpg|thumb|upright|Main hall]]

===Main building===
[[File:MICA MAIN BUILDING.jpg|left|thumb|Main Building]]
The Main Building houses painting and drawing studios, undergraduate photography department, foundation department, two departmental galleries, undergraduate admissions and the President's Office.

Construction began on a new campus in Bolton Hill when its Centre Market building was destroyed. Construction was completed in 1908.<ref name="The Architecture of Baltimore">{{Cite book|title= The Architecture of Baltimore |editor= Mary Ellen Hayward & Frank R. Shivers, Jr. |year= 2004 |publisher= Johns Hopkins UP |location= Baltimore |isbn= 0-8018-7806-3 }}</ref> The State of Maryland, the [[Carnegie Corporation of New York|Carnegie Foundation]], and local benefactors contributed funds to build it. Michael Jenkins donated the land, stipulating that the new building not clash with the nearby [[Gothic Revival]] Corpus Christi Church.<ref name="The Architecture of Baltimore" /> The Main Building was the first to be designed by New York-based architects Pell & Corbett, who were awarded the contract when they won a $500 design contest sponsored by the New York Association of Independent Architects. Otto Fuchs designed the interior studio plans. The architecture was intended to evoke a feeling of the [[Grand Canal of Venice]], c. 1400. The exterior marble is carved from "Beaver Dam" marble, excavated from the [[Baltimore County]] quarry near [[Cockeysville, Maryland]]. It is the same marble used to build the [[Washington Monument (Baltimore)|Washington Monument in Baltimore]] designed by [[Robert Mills (architect)|Robert Mills]], and part of the [[Washington Monument]] in [[Washington, D.C.]]<ref name="1847-1878" />

Architectural features include the main entrance, offering a large marble staircase, stained-glass skylight and the names of [[Renaissance]] masters surrounding the entrance to the second floor. The exterior of the northeast façade features four stone memorial medallions: one for the city, one for the state and two others honoring institute benefactors [[Andrew Carnegie]] and Michael Jenkins.<ref name="The Architecture of Baltimore" /> Throughout the Main Building plaster replicas of Greek and Roman statues offer students study targets for their Foundation year.

In 1908, the New York Association of Independent Architects awarded the building a gold key, the highest award in architecture at the time.

From 1990 to 1992, the building underwent a $5.1&nbsp;million renovation under the direction of the Grieves, Worrell, Wright & O'Hatnick, Inc (GWWO) architectural firm. The renovation upgraded the building's facilities and created additional academic and office space while retaining much of the original design and décor.

===Bunting Center===
Bunting Center houses Liberal Arts departments (art history and language, literature, and culture), the campus Writing Center, academic advising and the registrar. Bunting Center also houses a restaurant, Java Corner. The first floor and basement level house the Decker Library, which includes a collection of over 600 art books in its Special Collections area. Students are allowed to view any Special Collections item by requesting it from library staff. The library also includes an oversized Folio section and a wide collection of video and film materials, including DVD and Blu-ray. It hosts display cases for monthly exhibits, a private Screening Room for viewing films and holding meetings, and a classroom for instruction.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.mica.edu/Academic_Services_and_Libraries/Decker_Library.html|title=Decker Library - MICA|first=Maryland Institute College of|last=Art|website=www.mica.edu|access-date=21 March 2018}}</ref> Bunting Center contains the Pinkard Gallery and Student Space Gallery.

The acquisition and renovation of Bunting Center increased MICA's academic space by 20% when it opened in 1998. It was named for trustee George Bunting, who was also instrumental in the development of the Fox Building, among other projects.

The Bunting Center received the Grand Design Award and Honor Award from AIA Baltimore in 1998. In 2007, architect Steve Ziger headed the building's $5.5 million renovation, seeking to create "a real sense of neighborhood" for the college.

===Firehouse===
The Firehouse hosts the college's operations and facilities management department. The building has {{convert|7224|sqft|m2}} of space. MICA purchased a historic Firehouse along North Avenue in 2001 and renovated the building in 2003. As part of the redevelopment agreement, MICA maintained the station's front façade in accordance with Commission for Historical and Architectural Preservation standards. The renovation architect was Cho Benn Holback + Associates, Inc. Kajima Construction Services was the contractor. The Firehouse won an award from the Baltimore Heritage Foundation for preservation in 2004.

===Fox Building===
[[Image:MICA's FOX Building.jpg|right|thumb|The Fox Building]]
The building houses Decker Gallery, Café Doris, Meyerhoff Gallery, the Center for Art Education, the Division of Continuing Studies, as well as Ceramics, Illustration, Environmental Design, GFA, Drawing and Painting departments, the woodshop, the nature library, and Graphic Design MA (formerly Graphic Design Post-Baccalaureate). The Fox Building offers more than {{convert|60000|sqft|m2}} of usable space.

Built in 1915 as the Cannon Shoe Factory, the Fox Building was purchased in 1976. After two years of planning by architects Ayers/Saint/Gross, work began in 1979 and the newly renovated building opened in 1980. This renovation retained most of the warehouse character of the building, including exposed ductwork and framing and the original exterior—The renovations cost $2.5 million, and the building was named for architect Charles J. Fox, a 1965 graduate of MICA whose family contributed over $1.5 million of the renovation cost. After the conversion, the Mount Royal Improvement Association granted MICA an Award of Merit for its contribution to the community.

In 2005, a second renovation added another gallery and cafe.

===Bank Building (Studio Center)===
The {{convert|120000|sqft|m2|adj=on}} building houses the post-baccalaureate certificate program, Hoffberger School of Painting, The Mount Royal School of Art, the Graduate Photographic and Electronic Media program, and [[Senior (education)|Senior]] student studios. Although the official name is ''The Studio Center'', many students know it as ''The Bank Building''.

MICA purchased the former [[JoS. A. Bank Clothiers|Jos. A. Bank]] sewing plant on North Avenue in August 2000. The all-brick building dates to the early 20th century and was home to Morgan Millwork for most of the century.

It houses the Video, Animation, and BFA and MFA Graphic Design departments. It also has an art gallery, a secondary hall for lectures ("Brown 320"), and a "Black-Box" area for Interactive Media installations.

The first newly constructed academic building for the college in nearly a hundred years, Brown Center was dedicated on October 17, 2003, and became fully operational in January 2004.<ref>{{cite web|title=1978-Today: A Vital Force for Change–Expanding the Role of Artists and Designers|url=http://www.mica.edu/About_MICA/Facts_and_History/Historical_Timeline/1978-Today_A_Vital_Force_for_Change%E2%80%94Expanding_the_Role_of_Artists_and_Designers.html|publisher=Maryland Institute College of Art|access-date=26 August 2011}}</ref> It was bolstered by a $6 million gift from Eddie and Sylvia Brown, the largest gift ever received by the institute.

The {{convert|61410|sqft|m2|adj=on}}, five-story contemporary structure garnered acclaim as an architectural landmark. Awards have included the AIABaltimore 2004 Grand Design Award, AIA Maryland 2004 Honor Award of Excellence, regional award of merit in 2004 in the International Illumination Design Award competition, and several awards for excellence in construction. In addition, MICA president Fred Lazarus traveled to Italy in June 2006 to receive the [[Dedalo Minosse Prize|Dedalo Minosse International Prize]] for Brown Center. Brown Center was the only American project among the finalists.

Additional buildings making up MICA's campus include the Maryland Institute College of Art shop (known simply as "The MICA Store") at 1501 W. Mount Royal Ave. selling art supplies and books, and official MICA merchandise.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/details-of-mica-store-grand-opening-announced/|title=Jubilee Arts, #MadeInBaltimore to take part in MICA Store grand opening|last=Weigel|first=Brandon|date=2018-03-16|website=Baltimore Fishbowl|language=en-US|access-date=2018-12-29}}</ref>

==Student housing==
[[Image:MICA Gateway.JPG|right|thumb|The Gateway]]

Meyerhoff House is a residence for [[Sophomore year|Sophomore]], [[Junior (education year)|Junior]] and [[Senior (education)|Senior]] students. The building includes the college's main dining facility, student life center and recreational amenities. Originally built as the Hospital for the Women of Maryland, the building was used as nursing home for some time until it closed in 1994. The building was vacant for seven years until MICA purchased it in January 2001.<ref>{{cite web|last=Gunts|first=Edward|title=Maryland Institute buys former Women's Hospital|url=https://www.baltimoresun.com/2001/01/03/maryland-institute-buys-former-womens-hospital/|newspaper=Baltimore Sun|date=January 3, 2001 |access-date=8 August 2011}}</ref>
