Axel's Artist Statement

"“Nostalgia’ was a painting I made one day during one of my dialysis treatments. I chose the name simply because every time I see a sunset, memories flood in of seeing a sunset as a care-free child before dialysis became a part of my life. So as I wait for a donor, I’ll keep brightening people’s days with my awesome artwork.”

Little Steps, Big Cause

On September 27, more than 1,300 people gathered at the Maryland Zoo for the second annual Miracles in Motion race. The event featured a 5K run, a 1-mile walk and a 50-meter Critter Crawl kids dash. The event raised more than $225,000 for essential programs and services at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center. Thank you to the sponsors, donors, participants and volunteers who made this remarkable event possible!

Save the date for next year: September 26, 2026, at the Maryland Zoo.

Superheroes Make Special Visit

Superheroes took on a special mission at the Children’s Center in October, when window washers from Skyclean, Inc., dressed up as superheroes — including Batman, Mr. Incredible, Spider-Man, Super Man and The Hulk — and rappelled down The Charlotte R. Bloomberg Children’s Center building, bringing smiles to young patients and family members through the windows.
