We need your help to stay paywall free

We know you value local news and entertainment that is free, open, and independent. Producing high-quality, paywall-free content isn't free. It takes time, effort, and resources to keep you informed and entertained. Unlike corporate media, we don’t have deep-pocketed investors or big advertisers funding our work—we rely on you, our readers and listeners, to keep Radio Free Hub City running. We're literally running on a shoe-string budget, but keep working hard to provide as much news and entertainment as we can.

If just 5% of local area residents became paid supporters at only $5 per month, we could meet our fundraising goals and continue expanding our news coverage depth while continuing to provide free access for everyone. So, if you'd like to help us in our continuing quest to improve our coverage, please consider becoming a paying supporter.

Will you be one of the 5%?

The “MDWK Music & Market” series continues on Wednesday evenings at University Plaza, showcasing live bands like Hustle Souls, The Heavy Hitters, and Vinyl Fever. Food trucks and local drink vendors such as Hub City Brewery and Church Street Distillery will be on hand, with residents encouraged to bring chairs or blankets and enjoy a midweek break with family and friends. These events not only offer free entertainment, but also promote economic activity for downtown businesses and vendors.

On Sundays, the City Farmers Market at Hub City Brewery provides a chance for residents to shop for fresh produce, baked goods, and handmade items from regional artisans. These events help sustain local agriculture and give small businesses a platform to reach new customers. Meanwhile, the Hagerstown Municipal Band will continue its free Sunday evening concert series at the City Park Bandshell, offering performances that range from big band to island steel drum music.
