The 2-day festival offers opportunities to explore regional heritage through food sampling, artisanal shopping, 55 exhibits, and diverse musical performances, with family-friendly activities including a dedicated kids' area.
When you buy your tickets for the festival you can now select an add-on ticket for a Patuxent Boat Tour aboard the Red Osprey with the Certified Chesapeake Bay Story-telling crew.
