“Having never joined forces with a nonprofit of this caliber,” said Troika Gallery owner, Laura Era, “Troika hopes that this symbiotic relationship will prove beneficial for both of us. We are expecting an enthusiastic turnout to support this worthy cause. We all love the beautiful Eastern Shore and want to keep its waters clean as we work, travel, play, and—even, as artists—are inspired to paint it.”

“We know that so often art can inspire action,” said ShoreRivers Director of Development Rebekah Hock. “For this reason, ShoreRivers is so pleased to partner with Troika Gallery on this special exhibit of works that evoke the distinctive character of our precious watersheds. We hope the exhibition will serve as an important reminder that our waterways are beautiful, but also vulnerable and worthy of a commitment to their conservation.”
