Long Branch Festival Week

Montgomery Planning supported a community festival, September 20–27, 2019 in Long Branch, a neighborhood located east of downtown Silver Spring. This event was led by Discover Long Branch, an initiative of the Long Branch Business League, and the Montgomery Housing Partnership. It involved the community in a collaborative process of reimagining a livelier and friendlier downtown Long Branch. Together, the community created a temporary civic green for gatherings and new activities, as proposed in the 2013 Long Branch Sector Plan.

Thank you for coming!
