Today the Orioles unveiled the 10th installation in the Birdland Murals series, powered by PNC, a vibrant and meaningful piece by celebrated Baltimore artist KID BALLOON. This year’s mural is proudly displayed by Gate C inside Oriole Park. This installation continues the Orioles' and PNC Bank’s shared commitment to investing in Baltimore through art, culture, and meaningful community engagement.
“We are excited and proud to unveil the latest installment of the Birdland Murals powered by PNC,” said LAURA GAMBLE, PNC regional president for Greater Maryland. “PNC has a long history of investing in the arts in Baltimore. This new work by Kid Balloon is sure to delight ballpark visitors at every home game.”
Positioned where thousands of fans pass through on game days, the mural will serve as a photo-worthy backdrop, a vibrant welcome, and a lasting tribute to Baltimore’s artistic energy. The Birdland Murals series, powered by PNC, began in 2019 and currently features nine murals, seven of which can be found throughout Oriole Park, one on the west side of the Baltimore Convention Center, and the other in the Waverly community of Baltimore. As The Ballpark That Forever Changed Baseball™, Oriole Park blends historic charm with modern design, and this latest Birdland Mural adds to its legacy as a cultural hub for the city.
Kid Balloon, a multidisciplinary visual artist from Baltimore, is known for his bold, community-driven work that spans fine arts painting, graphic design, fashion, event planning, and creative direction. The name "Kid Balloon" reflects a central theme in his work: the uplifting power of joy. Selected for the Birdland Mural Series for both his deep ties to the city and his commitment to making art accessible, Kid Balloon uses creativity to reflect and elevate the communities that shaped him. His vibrant, message-driven style can be seen across Baltimore and beyond, through collaborations with BTST Cares, Digital Footprint, Hotel Revival, Broccoli City Festival, DTLR, Timberland, CIAA, Hennessy, Baltimore City Hall, and more. Whether working with students on school murals or creating large-scale public pieces, Kid Balloon brings a vibrant, feel-good energy to every project, reminding us that art, like a balloon, can rise above and bring people together.
“The Birdland Murals series allows us to use the power of public art to honor Baltimore’s rich identity,” said KERRY R. WATSON, JR., Orioles Executive Vice President of Public Affairs. “Kid Balloon’s work is a brilliant reminder of what happens when we give our artists space to lead. When nurtured by their community, artists can create work that is thoughtful, vibrant, and deeply rooted in the city’s creative spirit. We’re honored to provide a platform for local artists to share their vision with fans and families alike.”
