From: Annapolis Maritime MuseumMUSEUM CLOSED DUE TO FLOODING UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE
On January 9th Annapolis Maritime Museum (AMM) took in 18 inches of floodwaters. Thankfully, devoted volunteers contributed to a successful preparation of the storm and the contents were spared. However water infiltrated the walls and major repairs to the building are in order. The flood was the 3rd highest the museum has endured and AMM has made it a strategic priority to develop short term and long term solutions to sea-level rise. AMM would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to our community and volunteers, for the steadfast support and dedication. Read More
