Casting Call for Weinberg Center Video

Frederick, MD -- Did you ever have a dance recital at the Weinberg Center for the Arts, and now have a child who is dancing there? Were you a volunteer who helped with the theater restoration after the flood of 1976? If so, the Hooray for Hollywood committee needs you! The group is looking for anyone who has a fond memory of the Center they’d like to share.

The Weinberg Center for the Arts, a municipal facility of the City of Frederick, is located at 20 West Patrick Street in Historic Downtown Frederick, Maryland. The theatre opened in 1926 as the Tivoli, the grandest of three downtown movie palaces, and was donated to the City of Frederick in 1978.
