FBAC CELEBRATES DARKROOM REVEAL

Frederick Book Arts Center will host an end-of-year celebration and fundraiser Dec. 6 from noon to 6 p.m. at its location in downtown Frederick. The event includes creative activities, demonstrations and the unveiling of the city’s first public-use darkroom, complete with the cutting of a giant film strip. Under executive director Casey Smith’s leadership since January, FBAC has doubled down on its educational mission, offering rotating small-scale classes in letterpress, bookbinding and engraving while serving as a destination for local school field trips. The 6,688-square-foot space houses working Gutenberg-style presses alongside modern processes, and the organization continues to expand its programming. Stop by to be inspired.
