Come to BlackRock and try something brand new, or reignite an old hobby!

IN THE SPOTLIGHT

Outdoor Movie Night:

Hoppers!

Join us under the stars for a free, family-friendly movie night on our lawn! Bring your blankets, lawn chairs, and loved ones for an evening of fun, popcorn, and community.

Screening begins at sunset!

This event will happen rain or shine! In the event of inclement weather, the screening will be moved indoors to our BlackBox theatre.

A Midsummer Night's Dream

Tie-Dye, Tutus, and Total Theatrical Chaos!

If you think Shakespeare is just stuffy tights and serious monologues, think again! We’re breaking out the neon sweatbands, the kazoos, and all the wacky, high-speed energy for our wild take on Shakespeare's most magical comedy.

ABOUT US

For the last 22 years, BlackRock has provided access to the arts through exceptional classes, performances, exhibits, and community and family events.

 

And the last year exposed just how much we truly need community, connection, and creativity in order to survive and thrive.

For this reason, BlackRock has evolved beyond just a cultural arts center into a central resource for families in and around Upcounty Montgomery County Maryland.  

We are committed to providing opportunities for arts engagement particularly for youth from low-income households in our community. To learn more about our outreach programs, click here. 

BlackRock is here for you, our community, and beyond.
