The Ward Foundation, established in 1968, is dedicated to promoting wildfowl art and preserving the legacy of Eastern Shore decoy carvers. Through programs that explore art, nature, and tradition, the Foundation brings people of all ages together in the local community and beyond.
Home to the annual Ward World Championships and the Chesapeake Challenge, the Ward Foundation invites individuals to support the traditions of Wildfowl Art and engage in educational opportunities such as carving classes and exhibitions that celebrate 56 years of wildfowl art tradition.
