Water's Edge Museum

The Museum presents exhibits  showing how people of color on the Eastern Shore lived and how their lives mattered. Featured in the gallery are the Works of Ruth Starr Rose, who painted aspects of African-American life and culture in the 1930s through the 1940s.

The Museum seeks to empower the young people of today to find their place in history and identify their own positive and unique voice when facing contemporary issues and challenges.
