Fello is creating a new, inclusive space at Annapolis Mall, with this week’s branded barricade installation signaling the beginning of its 5,900-square-foot Community Hub project. As the mall reimagines its community spaces, Fello at The Mall will serve as a hub for connection, representation, and inclusion — giving people with disabilities, their families, and the broader community a place to gather and access vital resources.

Once complete, the Hub will feature a meeting room, offices for Fello employees, and an accessible restroom with an adult changing station — removing a significant barrier that often limits the participation of people with mobility-related disabilities in community life. A dedicated Program Coordinator will be onsite to manage the space, welcome visitors and provide information and referrals.

“Fello at The Mall is about more than just space — it’s about showing up where the community is,’ said Jonathon Rondeau, President & CEO of Fello. “People with disabilities want, need, and deserve to be in the heart of the community. This Hub ensures that happens while making it easier for families to connect with us, access support, and feel welcomed in an inclusive environment.”

Located in one of the region’s busiest shopping destinations, Fello at The Mall will give the organization a highly visible presence and connect the people it supports to the full range of opportunities Annapolis Mall offers — from shopping and dining to fitness, entertainment, and community events.

Fello signed the lease in June 2025, began renovations in July, and will celebrate the grand opening with a ribbon-cutting in January, with occupancy beginning in February 2026.
