About the Museum
The Annapolis Maritime Museum & Park (AMM) is a major community asset serving Anne Arundel County and beyond. AMM educates youth and adults about the Annapolis area’s rich maritime heritage and the ecology of the Chesapeake Bay through programs, exhibits, and community events. We accomplish this mission through an engaging suite of hands-on programming and by bringing visitors to our two campuses on Back Creek and aboard the Museum’s historic skipjack, Wilma Lee.
A volunteer board of 17 distinguished community members and a professional staff oversee the operations and long-range planning for this tax-exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. We are proud to share that our thriving cohort of nearly 250 volunteers are involved in all aspects of the Museum’s functions.
The Education Center at the Museum’s Park campus offers four core education programs, as well as field trips, family programs, afterschool programs, summer camp, and more. The Education Center serves more than 12,000 students annually educating them on the history, ecology, and cultural traditions of the Chesapeake Bay.
AMM hosts numerous events and programs throughout the year (e.g., Boatyard Beach Bash, Oyster Roast & Sock Burning, Tides & Tunes Summer Concerts and September Sunsets Concert Series, Winter Lecture Series) and serves as a gathering place for both civic and community functions.
