The Frederick News-Post
The Frederick News-Post
Some know it as a space that screened really, really cool movies. Others know it as one of the few concert venues in Frederick where bands could truly be themselves. To its owner, Mike Peters, it’s a place to store movie equipment sometimes rented out to those who needed it.
It’s Area 31, and it’s closing in a few months after nearly a decade in operation. Find the story in this week’s 72 Hours.

Area 31 fans! I know that Area 31 has sadly closed, but I'm looking for a similar venue to rent next year (for a private event). I just need a cozy space that has a bathroom, space to dance, and that's amenable to loud-ish music and BYOB. If you know of a place that might fit the bill, please let me know. Thanks!
Any chance of you guys screening this?
rest in peace Harry Dean Stanton
