Celebrating our honorees doesn’t end when the event is over. ❤️

The individuals we’ve recognized over the years continue to grow, lead, inspire, and make a lasting impact in our communities. Their stories don’t stop when they receive an award, and neither does our celebration of them.

We’re proud to continue sharing their journeys, recognizing their accomplishments, and cheering them on every step of the way.

Because excellence isn’t just something we celebrate once a year. It’s something we celebrate always.

🎨 New Art Alert at Kemp Hall!
We’re excited to shine a spotlight on Mars Randall (they/them) and their incredible creativity!

Mars is currently an undergraduate student at Towson University studying psychology. With a passion for art that spans years, they explore a variety of creative mediums, with a special love for watercolor and mixed media collage.

We love seeing young artists like Mars sharing their talents, expressing themselves, and bringing fresh creativity into our community.

Congratulations, Mars! Keep creating and inspiring! 🎨👏

Five years of growth.
Five years of gratitude.

This milestone is about more than five years. It’s about the people, the stories, the accomplishments, and the impact that have made African Americans of Excellence what it is today.

Each year, young art students create original pieces inspired by our honorees. Along the way, they learn their stories, understand the impact they’ve made and bring those legacies to life through their own creativity.

It’s more than artwork. It’s a connection between generations.

Our honorees have helped shape this community. These young artists are part of what comes next.

Join us as we celebrate 5 YEARS of AAOE, 7 incredible legacies and the young talent helping tell their stories.

A pretty special surprise for someone who has given so much to our community. ❤️

Yemi, Platoon 22 and the RS Will team surprised longtime community advocate and veteran, Sharon Jacko with a portrait created just for her.

If Sharon looks familiar, you may remember seeing her larger than life on the front of the RS Will building. This time, we took that giant mural and brought it down to a size she could take home and keep.

A small version of a big tribute for someone who has made a big impact on Frederick.

We hope every time Sharon looks at it, she’s reminded just how much this community appreciates her.
