Maryland Education Center to Open Dec. 16

The grand opening of the Maryland Horse Library and Education Center will be held Dec. 16 at noon, the Maryland Horse Breeders Association (MHBA) and the Maryland Horse Foundation (MHF) announced Monday. The ribbon-cutting ceremony will take place, followed by the MHBA's Christmas open house until 4 p.m.

Located at 321 Main Street in the heart of historic Reisterstown, the Maryland Horse Library and Education Center will serve as a hub for learning and collaboration, while honoring the long history of horses in Maryland. The large, airy space includes an extensive reference library, a meeting space and gallery.

“Our plan is for the MHLEC to serve as a resource to the community and those folks interested in learning more about horses–whether they are researching a book or looking for a place to take lessons or volunteer,” said Cricket Goodall, executive director of the Maryland Horse Breeders Association.
