Where – and What -- is Laurel?
Those are the questions “It’s All Laurel: City Limits and Beyond” works to answer at a new exhibit opening February 18 at the Laurel Museum. Though located in the City of Laurel, the exhibit strives to demonstrate that “Laurel” is more than areas within the city limits. Focusing on communities ranging from Scaggsville to Russett to the historic African American community of Bacontown, the exhibit reveals the breadth of Laurel – geographically, demographically and historically. The exhibit reminds visitors that in addition to the City of Laurel and Prince George’s County, Laurel extends into Howard, Anne Arundel and even Montgomery Counties –north, south, east, and west. Within each county are communities with distinctive personalities and surprising details that in one way or another are all part of Laurel.
