Overview

Arts & Entertainment (A&E) Districts

The goal of the Arts & Entertainment (A&E) Districts program is to develop, promote, and support diverse artistic and cultural centers in communities across Maryland that preserve a sense of place, provide unique local experiences, attract tourism, and spur economic revitalization and neighborhood pride. The A&E District designation offers Maryland counties and municipalities tax incentives and other tools to encourage activity and investment in specific geographic areas where the arts are part of an economic development strategy.
