Boomtown Community Screening and Discussion

A Powerful Story of Frederick’s Creative Legacy

Step into a story where past and present collide—and where the spirit of Frederick’s cultural resilience comes alive. A story based on the newspaper archives of  Amos Brown, the first Black Chief of Photography at the Frederick News-Post.

Be part of an inspiring afternoon of film, history, and conversation at Hood College in Hodson Auditorium (inside Rosenstock Hall).

This event is more than a film screening—it’s an opportunity to reflect on Frederick’s creative legacy and explore how storytelling continues to shape our community today. Proceeds benefit AARCH Society and Big Blue Foundation
