Maryland, through the Department of Business and Economic Development, is the first state in the country to develop the Arts and Entertainment Districts on a statewide basis.

These districts were created to provide incentives for artists, and art enterprises, to locate in a revitalizing community. Each district provides a concentration of art galleries, artist studios, performing arts and teaching space in the downtown business district.

Snow Hill received its Maryland Arts and Entertainment District designation in 2006. Aptly named Arts on the River because of its proximity to the scenic Pocomoke River, Snow Hill's A & E District encompasses 86 acres which also include residential neighborhoods with housing opportunities for artists to live and work in a creative community.

Here are some frequently asked questions about Arts on the River:
