Growing your own food is like printing your own money. Growing a vegetable garden returns x5 what you invested into it. And I don't only mean in food but also in joy, and accomplishments. Hard work pays off in both the bank and your heart.

Thank you @mainstreetmd for an incredible conference! Baltimore Main Streets, our local program partners, and our leadership had a wonderful time in Hagerstown learning with leaders from across the region!

We can’t wait to see you in Fell’s Point next
October!

You’re not proving your worth. You’re offering an invitation into your world.

A few moments from my closing keynote, More Than a Post: Telling the Stories That Bring Places to Life, at the 2026 Main Street Maryland Conference. 🎤✨

I had the honor of speaking about the power of storytelling, creating authentic content, and how sharing experiences that make communities special can inspire others to connect, explore, and feel like they belong. 💛🏘️🌻

What can Ocean City learn from a city on the other side of Maryland? Quite a bit, actually.

OCDC spent three days in Hagerstown this week at the 2026 Maryland Main Street Conference, connecting with people who share our passion for making downtown communities better places to live, work, and visit.

Between the workshops, conversations, and tours of nearby Main Streets, we got to see some pretty cool things happening across Maryland.

Hagerstown’s murals and public art were especially impressive!

Every downtown has its own personality, including ours here in Ocean City. That’s what makes getting together, sharing ideas, and learning from each other so valuable.

A big thanks to Maryland DHCD, Maryland Main Street, and our hosts in Hagerstown for a great conference!

Looking forward to Fells Point in 2027!

I had a wonderful time attending my second Main Street Maryland Conference in Hagerstown! It’s always a pleasure to connect with like-minded individuals who share a passion for community and economic development throughout our home state of Maryland.

I enjoyed several valuable presentations covering topics such as building community partnerships, activating Main Streets through placemaking, Maryland’s economic climate, and more.

One of my favorite parts of the Main Street Maryland Conference is the opportunity to explore different parts of our state that I might not otherwise get the chance to visit.

I’m grateful for the opportunity to learn, connect, and continue supporting vibrant communities across Maryland!

💙 HAGERSTOWN, WE DID IT! 🎉

After 10 months of planning, countless meetings, and a whole lot of teamwork, we officially wrapped up the 2026 Main Street Maryland Conference in #downtownhagerstown

It’s hard to believe that 10 months of preparation came down to just 1.5 days, but what an incredible 1.5 days it was! We had the opportunity to welcome more than 400 Main Street professionals, community leaders, and downtown champions from across Maryland to experience the energy, creativity, businesses, and people that make Hagerstown so special❤️

A HUGE thank you to @marylandhousing @mainstreetmd and @medamaryland for bringing this conference to life in our city. It truly took a village!

To our sponsors: Thank you for investing in this conference and helping make it possible.

To our host venues — @usmhagerstown @themarylandtheatre and @liveathubcityvinyl : Thank you for opening your doors, welcoming our guests, and providing incredible spaces to learn, connect, celebrate, and experience the best of downtown Hagerstown!

To our volunteers: Thank you for giving your time, sharing your smiles, and helping our guests feel welcomed every step of the way.

To our downtown businesses: Thank you for rolling out the red carpet, opening your doors, serving hundreds of visitors, and showing everyone what makes our downtown so special!

To our talent show participants: Thank you for sharing your talents, bringing the entertainment, and making our time together even more memorable!

And to the countless City staff, community partners, artists, speakers, venues, planning committee members, and behind-the-scenes helpers who played a role in making this happen — THANK YOU!

Hosting this conference was about more than bringing hundreds of people to Hagerstown. It was an opportunity to showcase how far our downtown has come, celebrate the people who are helping shape its future, and share our community’s story with the rest of Maryland.

We couldn’t be prouder of the way Hagerstown showed up!💛

Until next year… we’ll see you in @fellspointmainstreet for the 2027 Main Street Maryland Conference🎉

POV: Main Street is making a comeback… and @downtownhagerstown understood the assignment.

Vibrant murals, bustling streets, arts, education, entertainment, and local commerce. This is what downtown revival looks like!

Old spaces. New energy. BIG possibilities. 🖤

2026 @mainstreetmd Conference ✨

Next stop: Fell’s Point, Baltimore in 2027!

A moment I’ll never forget 💛🎤💫

What an honor to deliver the closing keynote at the 2026 Main Street Maryland Conference!

Getting to share my love for storytelling with a room full of people who care so deeply about their communities was a beautiful reminder of why I fell in love with storytelling in the first place. The stories we tell matter, and so do the people and places behind them.

Thank you for trusting me to help close out such a special two days. Feeling incredibly grateful for this experience and everyone who made it so special 🥹🤍✨🌻🏠

Excited to be a presenter at @marylandhousing’s @mainstreetmd conference! Attending these things is a little like drinking from a fire hose, so I always like to provide worksheets for folks to re-visit content later and make a plan based on their needs. The DHCD crew has done an exceptional job putting this event together for more than 400 attendees!
