In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month each year, Centro Hispano turns Carroll Creek in downtown Frederick into a lively, colorful celebration of Hispanic art, culture and music.
The festival, which takes place annually on the first Saturday of October, features live music, dancing and food from a variety of Latin American countries. It’s a great way to showcase the richness and diversity of Hispanic culture and to shine a spotlight on the contributions our Hispanic neighbors have made and continue to make to our community.
