Bike Talbot

Pedal the Backroads and Byways to the Water's Edge

It is not hyperbole to say that Talbot County is the arts capital of the Eastern Shore. Here, you’ll find many artists — and artisans — working across a wide range of mediums. Homegrown talent is joined by transplants from around the world who have found inspiration in this beautiful place on the Chesapeake Bay. Art has become an intrinsic part of the fabric of Talbot County thanks in large part to its natural beauty and sophisticated towns, along with a community that nurtures artistic talent.

For visitors, this means you’re treated to the highest level of artistic offerings typically reserved for big cities. Yet, you can enjoy the arts here on the Eastern Shore in a charming, stress-free environment.

Happy first day of spring! On this auspicious day we thank the Talbot County Historical Society who have been a wonderful resource during #womenshistorymonth. Visit their Mary Jenkin`s House (believed to be the oldest frame house in Easton) where Ms. Jenkin’s, along with cohort Mary B. Dixon, led the charge for women’s suffrage in Talbot County. Then cross the street to see what’s blooming in the Historical Society’s garden! https://talbothistory.org/museum-gardens/mary-jenkins-house/
