A Letter from our Director

A Letter from our Director, Elaina Lill Uhl

Dear Community Member,


The Captain Avery Museum is an exceptional community center. I am honored to serve here as the new Executive Director and to work with a creative and dedicated staff, board, and group of donors and volunteers. 


Each year, Captain Avery Museum relies on your contributions. You help us provide educational programs and events that celebrate our Chesapeake Bay community and heritage. Programs at the museum call us to gather, learn, and have fun together as a community. 


The last few years presented unique challenges and barriers. Yet, last year, your membership and tremendous support allowed us to not only weather the pandemic, but to reopen the museum doors and return to our highly acclaimed programs and events. During our latest new program, Fridays at the Captain’s summer series, my heart filled with joy - and a sense of limitless possibility - as I witnessed our community gather again and fill our Great Room. I am proud to join you, and deeply moved by the community that you have cultivated over the past 37 years at the Captain Avery Museum. 


This coming year we will continue building and strengthening community with our enriching programs that are free or low-cost to community members. Program costs have greatly increased. The museum needs your Annual Appeal donation. Your tax-deductible gift will help us continue your favorite programs and present a new line-up of seasonal workshops and regular family-oriented programs, to not only draw new audiences, but to enhance our community interaction.


See the Annual Report below for the full story and a sneak preview of 2023. 


As 2022 draws to a close, please join our Captain Avery Museum community and become a member today or add to your ongoing support with a donation to our Annual Appeal Campaign. 

Please make a gift today of $500, $250, $100, $50 or your most generous gift. 


Your membership and donations are essential to fund our museum programs and we are grateful for your support. Thank you for donating today and ensuring that our vibrant community museum reaches its potential for the year ahead! 


Wishing you warmth and light throughout the New Year! 


Sincerely, 

Elaina Lill Uhl
