Waterfowl Festival
Description
The annual Waterfowl Festival promotes wildlife conservation and celebrates life on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. The Waterfowl Festival is an annual, three-day event that promotes wildlife conservation and celebrates life on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Held at walkable locations across historic downtown Easton, the Festival attracts up to 20,000 visitors each year and encourages guests to experience local heritage and tradition in a casual environment for an affordable price.
Experience wildlife paintings, sculpture, carvings and photography, and meet the artists behind them. Buy, trade and sell antique decoys and hunting artifacts. Watch waterfowl calling contests and retriever, fishing and bird of prey demonstrations. Eat local seafood, listen to live music and bring the kids along for art classes and other activities.
