Founding Father Costume Contest

First State Heritage Park, part of the National Parks System, is Delaware’s first urban park without boundaries. This historical park explores the stories of remarkable Delawareans and the lives of ordinary people throughout the history of the First State. The park centers around the historic Dover Green and consists of the John Bell House Interpretive Center and Legislative Hall as well as six partner sites, which includes the Biggs Museum of Art, Woodburn Hall House, and the Johnson Victrola Museum. Costumed interpreters help visitors step back in time with 18th century living history, thematic walking tours, craft workshops, and special events to highlight this historic town!
