Oxford Community Center

The Oxford Community Center Building (OCC) has served as a community resource for over 80 years, first as a grammar school and then a high school and, for the last quarter century, as a cultural center and meeting place. OCC provides to residents and visitors alike a year-round schedule of educational, social, cultural, and recreational programs and events. It is indeed a mid-shore treasure enriching lives since 1928. Located in the lovely and historic waterside village of Oxford on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, the Oxford Community Center (OCC) is housed in a gracious former schoolhouse. The building was designed by noted Annapolis-born architect Henry Powell Hopkins (1891-1985), who designed public buildings all over Maryland. The Oxford Community Center building is the last surviving example of this architect’s work.
