The Annapolis Maritime Museum & Park 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 unique location, at the mouth of Back Creek overlooking the Chesapeake Bay. The Education Center at the AMM’s Park Campus annually serves more than 12,000 students and adults. We aim to help construct a connection between people and the environment by leading hands-on activities that foster positive outdoor experiences and help stimulate critical thinking. These experiences can help establish a foundation for future sustainable environmental decision making. AMM offers four free core programs, as well as field trips, family programs, afterschool, summer camp, and more.
The Annapolis Maritime Museum & Park (AMM) is a major community asset serving Anne Arundel County and beyond. A volunteer board of 16 distinguished community members and a professional staff oversee the operations and long-range planning for this tax-exempt 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We are also proud to say our thriving cohort of over 350 volunteers is involved in all aspects of the Museum’s functions.
