For the curious, the creative and the culturally-minded, Maryland is an especially lively place to live. And, the overwhelming majority of Marylanders express a deep appreciation—and pride—for the presence of art and artists in their communities, with 81% of those surveyed in our recent Statewide Survey of the Arts in Maryland agreeing, “a vibrant arts community makes Maryland a better place to live."
The Maryland State Arts Council (MSAC), an agency of the Maryland Department of Commerce, Division of Tourism, Film and the Arts, is pleased to provide an annual grant to St. Mary’s College of Maryland and the Chesapeake Orchestra's River Concert Series. Events such as this outstanding concert series are a window into the countless arts opportunities available to residents and visitors across our state. The MSAC thanks the River Concert Series for its ongoing contributions to Maryland’s cultural vitality.
