Posted: Updated:

SALISBURY, Md. - The Ward Museum of Wildfowl Art, Salisbury University, is hosting a benefit seafood dinner on October 12, from 4:30PM-6:30PM.

Guests will be treated to an assortment of local seafood and sides, including steamed Maryland blue crabs, oysters on the half shell, steamed shrimp and a selection of side dishes, provided by Linton's Seafood. Tickets are $40 and can be purchased in advance at the Ward Museum Store.

After dinner, guests may enjoy a complimentary slice of Smith Island cake and a cup of coffee while taking in a "Carving Out Future Decoy Makers" symposium. Master carvers from across the country discuss their experience as instructors in this project.

The dinner kicks of a full weekend of activities as part of the 15th annual Chesapeake Wildfowl Expo, which includes decoy competitions, carving demonstrations, decoy appraisals, children's activities, buy-sell-trade vendors and more.

All proceeds from the dinner benefit the Ward Museum and museum projects.
