The Bay School - located on Main Street in downtown Mathews County - was conceived in 1997 to preserve heritage crafts, encourage eco-tourism and educate and bring together the local community. As a non-profit, 501c3 educational organization it is our goal to provide workshops, classes, lectures, exhibits and cultural opportunities. We provide a center that belongs to and exists for the community.
