The Arts

"A community without artists is not a true community, only people living in the same vicinity." ~ Byrne Piven

Artists' Hands at Work
          
On this pastoral peninsula, art reflects the beauty of life lived between the waters. Whether it’s a painting of a seaside sunrise, a sculpture of blue herons soaring in the heavens, the salty tradition of decoy carving, or ancient trees turned to art: the Eastern Shore’s natural splendor nurtures nationally acclaimed artists and artisans.    
     Discover them in small town galleries and tucked away in bayside studios, at local festivals and art strolls under starry nights.
     Delight, too, in performing arts brought to a historic theater, thriving in a community playhouse, or leaping in an art school’s annual Nutcracker Ballet tradition.
