    My brother was dying to show us this museum. It was a bit of a drive, but pretty nice in the end…read more We learned about the area and some interesting facts about how Annapolis was known for oyster exportation, as well as being the second biggest import for slavery unfortunately. Outside was beautiful! Someone was even taking bridal photos there. Definitely recommend coming here with the family!

    We visited the Annapolis Maritime Museum & Park for the first time this past Sunday when we were in…read moreAnnapolis for the day. The museum is small, but it's modern and well-organized. The staff member working when we visited (his name was Howard) was really friendly and helpful. He explained about the history of the building and recommended a path through the exhibits to get the most of out of our visit. We learned about a lot about the Chesapeake - its history, the its health and recovery... We learned a lot about oysters, too. There's a fun interactive game you can play where you balance oyster harvesting and the health of the Bay that entertained us (two adults nearing 40) for a while! Then there's a small gallery with photographs of the Bay and some outdoor exhibits, too. They offer sails on a certain days as well, so check out the schedule online before you visit if that's something you're interested in. It might be small, but it's a great little museum. Definitely worth a visit on a visit or trip to Annapolis.

    I visited Annapolis for the first time a few weekends ago with my boyfriend, and we stopped by this…read moremuseum upon searching things to do in the area. What I noticed immediately was that the staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. There was an event going on with the featured artist next door in the church building, but we were unable to stop by yet still enjoyed his artwork in the first room. Upstairs, we explored the history and watched a short historical video on the church. I really enjoyed how immersive and informative the museum was. It was a short but sweet trip and I learned a lot of new things about African American History in Maryland, which was awesome.

    Today was my first visit to this local museum; we scheduled the trip around Juneteenth. You enter…read moreon the first floor into a reception space, where on the right you can see the original external wall of the historic church. To the left, there is a room that contained several pieces from the Sacred Spaces exhibition, by Jabari Jefferson, of collages ftom found items. There was very good signage in this room to introduce the overall exhibit. From there, we went upstairs and to the left, to see the historical exhibits about African American history in Maryland, in Annapolis, and around the Chesapeake. These exhibits were very well done, and several had audio presentations. We spent quite a but of time there, because there was a good amount of detail to absorb. After making the historical exhibit loop, we went back into the foyer and across to the other side, where you actually enter the historic Mt Moriah AME church building. This big open space makes an amazing art gallery, with exhibits on two levels. It was really well lit and curated. We thought it was wonderful.

    I just visited the U.S. Naval Academy Museum for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and I was…read morereally impressed. The museum is located in Preble Hall on the grounds of the U.S. Naval Academy, so you'll need to check in/go through security at the visitor entrance (they check ID and run your bags through a metal detector), but it was very fast. Then it's just a quick walk over to Preble Hall. When we entered, we welcomed to the museum by two docents, who briefly explained what could be found in the museum, including their favorite parts of the collection (which was perfect, because we had less than hour in the museum before they closed). The museum is two floors. The first floor has exhibits on the development of the Navy and the history of the Naval Academy. The second floor houses an incredible collection of models of warships from the 17th-19th centuries (one of the largest collections of ship models). I wasn't sure this would be that interesting to me, but the docents had really highlighted this part of the collection during their introduction. I'm so glad we trusted them, because it was fascinating. One part of this collection really blew me away - the bone model display. It might sound morbid, but these models were carved from the bones of beef rations given to French prisoners of war during their incarceration in England (Anglo-French wars of 1756-1815). I had no idea about any of this history (does anyone?!), and it was really interesting. But the first floor also had amazing artifacts, and I learned a lot. Overall, this museum (also free, by the way) was pretty great. Even if you're not typically interested in naval history, this museum is special. It's well-curated and interesting. And those docents were wonderful! I'm sure I'll be back to take in what I didn't have time to on my first visit!

    Free museum! Tip,…read moreyou can't drive your car to entrance as a visitor. Must park in town and walk over. Volunteers at desk are available to give you tips about the exhibits. Clean bathrooms are available. The ship exhibits are cool!
