The DCHS and the South Dorchester Folk Museum (SDFM) have formed a cooperative arrangement whereby they will support each other's programs.

The South Dorchester Folk Museum, Inc. has been organized to recognize and remember those of our ancestors, relatives, and friends who lived and worked in the traditional communities of South Dorchester County, on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Museum membership is open to all who share our interest in the traditions, folkways, and artifacts of South Dorchester.

We sponsor programs that help document and record the lives of individuals and families from the time when the first settlers arrived, and the following generations, who made their livelihood trapping, hunting, working the water, and farming, as well as those who lived close by and supported those trades.
 

Museum members and guests meet At The Blackwater Wildlife Refuge’s Visitor Center or at the Neild Museum of the Dorchester County Historical Society on the first Wednesday of most months at 7:00 PM. (No membership meetings Jan, Apr, Jul, Oct, Dec.)
