From the small-town charm to the friendly customers and neighbors you interact with every day, Frostburg is a great place to visit, live, and do business.

When you invest in FrostburgFirst, you are investing in your community’s future.

A community’s central business district often accounts for as much as 30% of the town’s jobs and 40% of its tax base. More than that, the Frostburg Main Street and Arts & Entertainment District is also the community’s crossroads, a place in our hearts and minds that evokes strong emotions and helps define our identity. 

FrostburgFirst catalyzes economic development and facilitates collaboration and cooperation throughout the community. As a designated Maryland Main Street Community and state-designated Arts & Entertainment District, we strive to make Frostburg “cooler” by enhancing economic vitality and quality of life. FrostburgFirst emphasizes providing resources and promotional assistance to our small businesses and local artists while providing free events and regular updates to the general community. 

But our vision of downtown Frostburg as a thriving arts, cultural, and business community amidst Appalachian beauty requires much more. 

By investing in FrostburgFirst, you can have direct involvement with FrostburgFirst events, provide input on organizational operations, proposed projects, and investor perks, and increase the visibility of your business or organization in the Frostburg community and throughout the region. FrostburgFirst is proud to serve the Frostburg community and strives to contribute to the overall quality of life for residents, encourage tourism, and participate in economic development that will enhance downtown Frostburg.
