Marine Sciences

UPDATE: This event has been canceled. 

“We are sad to announce that Historic St. Mary’s City and the St. Mary’s River Watershed Association have decided to cancel RiverFest 2023. RiverFest was originally planned as a rain or shine event, but the forecast conditions have deteriorated, and we have concerns over public safety. The National Weather Service has placed St. Mary’s City in a tropical storm warning,” reads the organizers’ Facebook page.

RiverFest is a celebration of the St. Mary’s River and its watershed. Discover 101 ways to protect and enjoy the waterways, enjoy live music featuring The Hide and Wides, try kayaking and seining, and enjoy tours of Historic St. Mary’s City.

Riverfest runs from 11am to 4pm Saturday, September 23. Admission is free.

Visit exhibits and vendors from Southern Maryland. Come face to face with birds of prey, snakes, terrapins, and other seldom‐seen neighbors. Join the ceremonial River Wade-In at 2pm.
