The Struggle for Freedom exhibit is closed for renovations.

Our maritime exhibit, Maryland Dove, will be off the dock on Saturday, May 9, 2026, sailing in the St. Mary's River, and will therefore be unavailable for public boarding. 

The Maryland Dove Fund

This fund supports the maintenance & interpretation of the Maryland Dove, a re-creation of the smaller of the two ships that originally settled the colony of Maryland. The ship operates as a shore-side & traveling attraction for visitors as well as a working vessel that helps to preserve the maritime heritage of the 17th century.
