2021 Annapolis Oyster Roast & Sock Burning – Event Cancelled
The Annapolis Maritime Museum & Park (AMM) regretfully announces the cancellation of the 2021 Annapolis Oyster Roast & Sock Burning. For months AMM has been hopeful that it would be able to resume this beloved Annapolis tradition, typically scheduled on March 20th, close to the spring equinox. However, after closely monitoring the pandemic guidelines of both the County and the State, AMM feels it should cancel the event. As the current restrictions stand in Anne Arundel County, this event that typically accommodates roughly 500+ guests would now be limited to 100 guests. While these restrictions may fluctuate, our community’s health and safety are paramount. “We are deeply disappointed to cancel this long-standing, quirky tradition, and rite of spring, for a second year in a row,” stated Alice Estrada, President/CEO.
