What
Sample the best from top restaurants in the watershed at donated tasting stations along our waterside "restaurant row." Delight in the river with original art, painted on location by the Chesapeake Bay Art Association. Celebrate with one of the region's top-rated bands, Rockstar Parking. New this year--public debut of a world first...The Learning Barge!

Why
Did you know your home river is one of the most polluted rivers on the Chesapeake Bay?  Your generous donation will help support a new goal to make the river safe for swimming and harvest of shellfish by 2020! The inaugural 2008 RIVERFest raised the most funds for river restoration of any event yet. Keep the momentum growing!
