Eastern Shore's Own (ESO) Arts Center

"Art is a nation's most precious heritage. For it is in our works of art that we reveal to ourselves and to others the inner vision which guides us as a nation. And where there is no vision, the people perish."-Lyndon Johnson, on signing into existence the National Endowment on the Arts

"Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere."-Albert Einstein

ESO is proud to announce the establishment of the Grace D. Thompson Legacy Fund which will be used for the general operation of the arts center. Grace Decker Thompson, a supporter, volunteer and dear friend of Eastern Shore's Own Arts Center (ESO), passed away on September 8, 2011 after a courageous battle with cancer. As per her wishes, and in lieu of flowers, she asked that donations be made to ESO as she so appreciated the opportunities in the arts that ESO Arts Center provided to the citizens of the Eastern Shore.
