Heritage Frederick

There are still a few spots left for our next Parsons Newman Lecture!

Join us on Thursday July 30th from 6-7pm at The Museum of Frederick History for a small group tour of our 250th focused exhibits with HF Archivist Jody Brumage!

These connected exhibitions explore Frederick County’s role in the Revolutionary War and its place in an emerging nation, ranging from the colonial settlement of the county to the nation's centennial celebration in 1876. Highlights include items from the family of Maryland's first elected governor Thomas Johnson; the journals of prolific Frederick diarist Jacob Engelbrecht; and handwritten letters from John Adams, James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, and Charles Carroll of Carrollton, Frederick’s own signer of the Declaration of Independence. Participants will have an up-close view of additional artifacts that reveal even more about the people and stories featured in the exhibits. Take advantage of this opportunity to be guided through these stories by the person who conceptualized, researched, and designed the exhibit!
