Races for the Oasis 5K & Fun Run

🌳 Welcome to the Urban Oasis

Welcome to West Baltimore, where creativity thrives! Nestled in the heart of the Panway Neighborhood, The Urban Oasis is a safe space, forged by the strength of community. As a social and cultural hub, rich in the arts and interpersonal connection, our only limits are the ones we set for ourselves. Movies, concerts, art exhibitions, book readings, fitness classes...all in a space that we've created together as a community. At The Urban Oasis, we all have the opportunity to be developers. Developers of our neighborhoods, our homes, and ourselves.
