As founding members of the Cecil County Arts Council (CCAC), nurturing the arts on the Eastern Shore came as naturally for Peter and Theresa Wood as promoting local seafood at their family-owned restaurant, Woody’s Crab House, in historic North East, MD. For the past eight years, the Woods have routinely sponsored and played host for numerous Arts Council events, including the annual member’s meeting and juried exhibition. The Wood’s promote the local arts scene by showcasing and selling hundred’s of works by regional artists at their restaurant, returning all profits to the artists. "Customers may have to wait hours for a table in Woody’s," says Erin Murphy, director of the CCAC, "the arts community has never had to wait for support from Peter and Theresa Wood."
