Climbing the ponderous steps leading up to Frederick’s City Hall, a visitor might assume the walls within are reserved for government, budgets and policy. Less expected is that the lobby greeting visitors would hold beauty and expression.

Thanks to a new initiative, Frederick’s art community has a place in the halls, or rather walls of government. The City of Frederick’s Office of the Mayor Art in City Hall program presents rotating exhibitions throughout the year. The current exhibition, “Reflections of Resilience: Celebrating Black Voices in Art,” will be on view through March 5.
