Wonderful people, interesting service, great sense of community and peace. Some of the comments during the services I have attended have really stayed with me, it's the wisdom of the massess kind of thing. Visit if you can and be sure to stay for coffee and cookies after the meeting Lots of history too, I think it's the oldest meeting house around.

If one likes great art in an off the beaten path place then this is a stop for you. The art is a variety for all tastes. Plein Air a focus because of the summer Plein Air.event, but there are great other choices. I was drawn to Charlie Hunter's pieces, but love the abstracts there too.The owner is informative and will help with any questions you might have. if you make a day of it there is lunch and other things of interest including a really great small art museum (closed right now renovations) that any art lover would enjoy.

I have been a client of Troika Gallery for the past 15 years and it is the premier Art Gallery on the Eastern Shore - and believe me I have visited them all. Their slogan is the "Finest of Fine Art" and I could not agree more. The 30+ artists that they represent are fabulous and reflect the bucolic splendor of Maryland's Eastern Shore and the Chesapeake Bay. Most recently Carolyn Egley has joined the gallery and in addition to capturing bay scenes she masterfully paints Vermont country scenes that are simply breathtaking. Matt Zoll's still lifes are magical and really require study to truly enjoy. Bill Stork's historical Maritime paintings bring to life the ships that plied the Bay in days of lore, and Laura Era's portraits and pastels are so life like they can almost step off the canvas. If you're Easton you simply must visit Troika Gallery, and be sure to ask Peg and Laura questions as they are a wealth of knowledge and love the art and artists.
