Celebrated Eastern Shore event to feature acclaimed artist’s work in November
Easton, MD.
Jill Basham, a painter specializing in muted colors and a
purposefully simple style, is honored to announce their selection as a juried artist for the 2025
Waterfowl Festival, to be held November 14-16, 2025, in Easton, Maryland.
Now in its 54th year, the Waterfowl Festival is a premier showcase of wildlife and sporting art,
attracting thousands of collectors, conservationists, and art lovers to Maryland’s Eastern Shore
each fall. Juried artists are carefully selected based on originality, craftsmanship, and a
demonstrated connection to waterfowl, wildlife, or outdoor heritage.
Renowned outdoor painters, sculptors, carvers and photographers from across the country will
showcase their work in a series of exhibits spread throughout Easton. Attendees will enjoy
viewing works of art of all sizes that capture the beauty and majesty of the natural world. The
works will be available for purchase, providing a unique opportunity to own a piece of art that
reflects a deep appreciation for the outdoors.
“We are excited to showcase this year’s artists,” said executive director Deena
Kilmon “It’s a pleasure each year to review all of the submitted work, and we are
humbled by the fantastic artists who choose to participate in our festival for the
benefit of our mission – supporting wildlife habitats and educating the general
public on conservation issues and the precious nature of our vanishing outdoor
spaces.”
The Waterfowl Festival is more than an art show — it’s a celebration of community, culture,
and conservation. A portion of proceeds supports wildlife habitat preservation and
conservation efforts across the Chesapeake Bay region.
