Maryland is called “America in Miniature” because so much is packed into its mere 10,460 square miles: undulating mountains along the Appalachians; crashing waves along the Eastern Shore; farmland and a dense urban corridor. Ethnic groups of every origin call Maryland home. You'll find its 432 festivals as diverse as its people! And, this small state has some big events: Maryland Renaissance Festival, Christmas Village in Baltimore and Fell's Point Fun Festival. Scroll below to view the variety of culture, art, music and entertainment found at Maryland Festivals, Art Shows, Music Festivals and Craft Shows.
