Events
Experience the Chesapeake, together.
This Old Shore began by bringing the Chesapeake's stories to audiences online. In time, those stories will extend beyond the screen through guided experiences that invite people to explore the places, landscapes, and traditions that continue to shape life around the Bay.
Through walking tours, interpretive hikes, guided cruises, behind-the-scenes museum experiences, and special programs developed in partnership with organizations across the region, participants will experience thoughtful storytelling, local history, and a deep sense of place—helping them see familiar landscapes with new eyes.

Join This Old Shore creator and Chesapeake Historian Kate Livie on a narrated cocktail cruise with Chesapeake Water Tours. Departing from the historic Kent Narrows, Livie will explore one of the most dramatic chapters in the Chesapeake's history: the 19th century Oyster Wars. Grab a cocktail and enjoy the sunset while listening to stories of Chester River gun battles, lawless oyster pirates, sprawling packing houses and Oyster Navy raids—and learn how that history shaped the today's modern day oyster industry.
