• Hounds Around Town - Looking for a day filled with furry friends and fun? Then look no further than the Allegany County Animal Shelter's "Hounds Around Town" program, allowing individuals to sign a shelter dog out for the day. The beautiful mountains of Western Maryland present an excellent opportunity for our shelter dogs to experience the joy of a long walk, hike or run in many of the area's scenic locations. Are you looking for something more low-key? No problem. We have many pups that would enjoy an afternoon lounging on a couch, a stroll through the neighborhood, or maybe a trip for ice cream. The most important thing is giving an adoptable shelter dog a much-needed break from the kennels and providing enrichment and socialization. For more information on the Hounds Around Town program, contact the shelter at 301-777-5930.

Ferleman Gallery is proud to present The Secrets That Structure Holds, a solo exhibition of new work by contemporary painter Allan Gorman.


Gorman’s work operates at the intersection of realism and abstraction, drawing from the overlooked geometries of the built environment. Rooted in a lifelong fascination with architecture, infrastructure, and industrial forms, his paintings distill structural elements into compositions of light, shadow, and spatial tension. Through this process, familiar surfaces—steel, concrete, glass—are transformed into immersive visual fields that challenge perception and reveal unexpected complexity.

• Buffalo Rose, Friday, April 10, 7 9 pm.

• Jenner Fox & Jeremy Elliott w/Cochulain, Thursday, April 16, 7 – 9 pm. After two sold-out performances that left the room leaning in and asking for more, Jenner Fox returns to Gallery Stage—this time with Jeremy Elliott and an entirely new set of music. The evening opens with the wit and charm of Cuchulain before moving through selections inspired by the great John Prine and into the duo’s own evocative songwriting. Based in Bellingham, Washington, Fox and Elliott are internationally touring artists known for poignant storytelling, intricate guitar interplay, and the rare ability to make two musicians sound like one. Their debut LP, The Moon That Moves The Sea (2024), was praised by Americana UK as “evocative and revelatory,” and their live performances carry that same depth—balancing humor, vulnerability, and virtuosity in a way that feels both intimate and expansive inside the listening-room setting of Gallery Stage.

• Minor Gold, Thursday, April 30, 7 – 9 pm Minor Gold is a spellbinding duo made up of Tracy McNeil and Dan Parsons, two seasoned musicians whose creative partnership has been quietly evolving for nearly a decade.

Though Minor Gold officially emerged with the release of their debut single “Mona Lisa,” the collaboration behind it is deeply rooted. Parsons was a key contributor to McNeil’s acclaimed 2020 album You Be The Lightning, and this project brings the two artists together on equal footing, distilling their shared musical language into something intimate, restrained, and emotionally resonant.


Their music thrives in the space of less is more: gentle guitar, sparse textures, subtle percussion, and two voices locked in haunting harmony. “Mona Lisa” has been praised for its warmth and emotional clarity, a song that feels as soothing as it is profound, exploring the fragile moments when friendship shifts and deeper truths come into view.


Minor Gold’s sound is quietly powerful, built on trust, space, and songwriting that lands directly where feelings live. Live, their connection shines, creating a listening room experience that feels personal, hushed, and deeply human.

• Gatsby Gala
Fifth Anniversary Edition

Saturday, April 25 2026

F. Brooke Whiting House
632 Washington Street • Cumberland, MD


Celebrate Local Living History in Style


For the fifth time, the Allegany County Historical Society is opening the Brooke Whiting House to celebrate the peak of Western Maryland’s affluence and influence through the lens of a great American novel, “The Great Gatsby.”


This gala fundraiser is an enjoyable tradition when we dress in our best 1920s outfits and re-live a racy 1929 prohibition party as guests of F. Brooke and Ruth Whiting in their 1911 home. This was Cumberland’s boom time. The Whitings were active in everything from banking to beer brewing. In our time machine gala, they’re hosting a party and anticipating the end of Prohibition with unbridled optimism.


Known to our ACHS family simply as “Gatsby”, this night has become a must-do social gathering for all the right reasons! Surprise arrivals. Great food. Live Jazz. An amazing setting among Brooke Whiting Jr and his sister Anne’s collections of art, books, and furnishings, astutely acquired from antiquities dealers and during their world travels and donated, with the house, to ACHS. Proceeds benefit the Allegany County Historical Society’s preservation and educational mission, as established beginning in 1937.


The Whiting House collections glisten… especially rare books that were our benefactor’s passionate profession. F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel about the glamorous Roaring 20s was powerfully predictive of America’s future through the dark fate of his protagonist, complicated and mysterious Jay Gatsby. Now understood to be semi-autobiographical about his tumultuous life with wife Zelda, naturally the Fitzgerald’s are always invited!


Doors Open at 6 PM

Attire: Formal or Semi Formal 1920s Era Recommended

Bar: Open Bar free to all ticket buyers

The Community Trust Foundation (CTF) is excited to announce that it will be relocating its office from the Gateway Center Building on Baltimore Street to 208 N. Centre Street in Cumberland, Maryland. The official move-in date is February 1.

Reuniting under one roof reflects both a shared history and a continued commitment to strengthening the region.

CTF looks forward to welcoming community partners, donors, and nonprofit organizations to its new location beginning February 1.
