SUMMARY:When the Call Came: Civilians and the Maryland Flying Camp
DESCRIPTION:Marylanders organized a rapid-response militia to defend liberty during the early days of the American Revolution. Known as the Maryland Flying Camp\, this force was more than a military unit; it was a civilian experience that transformed daily life in 1776. \nStop by Pinkney Street to meet living historians and experience how Marylanders lived\, worked\, and served during a pivotal moment in the fight for independence. The war was fought not only on battlefields\, but in homes\, shops\, taverns\, and fields! \nVisitors of all ages can take part in period games and a hands-on activity from the Revolutionary era. \nThis is a drop-in style program. Visitors may join at any time during program hours and explore at their own pace through informal interaction and demonstrations. Advance registration recommended\, but not required.

SUMMARY:Let's Go! Music Festival
DESCRIPTION:Let’s Go Music Festival is the official kickoff to summer in Maryland. Created by a brother-and-sister duo from Annapolis\, Let’s Go! was built by music lovers\, for music lovers — and is heading into its 6th year as one of the region’s most anticipated live-music weekends.\n​\nSince day one\, they have focused on bringing top-tier national talent to their hometown while delivering a festival experience that feels personal\, intentional\, and fan-first. Let’s Go offers something you rarely get with acts of this caliber: room to breathe\, room to dance\, and real access to the music. Whether you’re holding a GA or VIP ticket\, you’re never lost in a sea of tens of thousands — and even GA fans can still get right up front at the stage (and maybe you’ll end up on stage!).\n​\nThe result is a festival that combines big-name performances with the intimacy\, comfort\, and community feel of a hometown event — a weekend designed to feel just as unforgettable as the music itself.

SUMMARY:Linen and Liberty: Meet Catharine Futier
DESCRIPTION:It’s the spring of 1776 and the American Revolution is underway. British occupation of several colonies\, combined with Congress’s non-importation policy on British goods\, makes essential supplies increasingly scarce for tradespeople.  \nCatharine Futier\, a free Black woman who earns her living as a laundress and seamstress\, is among those deeply affected by these restrictions. Step into her shop and journey into the past to discover how everyday people endured hardship\, adapted\, and made sacrifices in support of the revolutionary cause.  \nThis is a drop-in style program. Visitors may join at any time during program hours and explore at their own pace through informal interaction and demonstrations. Advance registration recommended\, but not required.
