The Delaplaine is located in historic downtown Frederick, Maryland, along the beautiful Carroll Creek Park Promenade. Established in 1986, The Delaplaine Arts Center has grown from a grassroots nonprofit organization to a cultural anchor visited by more than 80,000 people and offering more than 50 exhibitions in seven galleries, 250 classes and workshops, and dozens of public programs each year. R

eflecting the vision that "everyone deserves art," the Delaplaine's Community Outreach initiative partners the organization with local nonprofits and service organizations to provide customized arts programs to the underserved and at-risk in the community. The Gift Gallery showcases works by regional artists on consignment, and Gardiner Hall and the Event Deck provide spaces for programs, community gatherings, and private events.
