DOVER, Del. — Delaware’s Division of Historical and Cultural Affairs is rolling out a series of special events this May as part of the nation’s 250th birthday celebration.
The agency is encouraging residents to step back in time through various educational programs that highlight Delaware’s role in American history. Participants will have opportunities to explore the First State’s maritime heritage and experience traditional English Country dancing, an art form that dates back centuries.
The programming will also feature encounters with historical interpreters, including a portrayal of an officer from the Loyal American regiment, giving visitors a chance to interact with figures from Delaware’s Revolutionary War past.
These commemorative events are part of the statewide effort to recognize America’s semiquincentennial anniversary, showcasing Delaware’s unique contributions to the nation’s founding story.
