“Lasting Reflections—Feuchter and Castelli—Two Centuries of the Chesapeake” Special Exhibition
Now Open!
Artists Louis Feuchter and Marc Castelli are two of the finest marine artists from the Chesapeake region working in either half of the 20th century. Their work both documents and captures the sailing vessels, landscapes, and people working and sailing on the Bay over the course of more than 100 years. This special exhibition brings together works from both artists from CBMM’s collection and private collections.

“A Rising Tide in the Heart of the Chesapeake” Special Exhibition
Now Open!
Combining the world-class photography of David Harp with the words of acclaimed author and environmentalist Tom Horton and the voices of Chesapeake Bay islanders themselves, this exhibition dramatically illustrates the effects of a rise in sea level on the Bay’s lowlands and islands. The exhibit focuses on the lives and stories of key individuals in each community represented, allowing Museum visitors an intimate sense of the cultural heritage at risk of disappearing.
