The Downtown Dip

03/25/2026

We are writing to share that we’ve made the difficult decision to close Serendipity on Market. This is a very sad time for us, as we have truly loved being a part of the downtown Frederick fabric. Your support and kindness have meant the world to us every single day.

Though this chapter is ending, we are looking forward to what the future has in store. Thank you, Frederick, for being the most incredible community we could have asked for. We will miss you dearly.
