Delaware Shoppes

Don’t forget! time

Our favorite farmers are back this weekend!

If we we can ❤️

If you’re downstate, be sure to check out the new exhibit at Gallery One. These are terrific artists. Bought first Laura Hickman back in the 80’s at Rehoboth Art League and the last one a couple of years ago at the historic outdoor show which is held each August. Taylor was a RAL member for about 30 years but husband’s MS got too much and had to cut back. Hoping to be part of a poetry group that meets there this winter. RAL’s just the best place ever for events and art. The independent galleries around the state are full-time working artists. Art collecting is fun!

Shadow World is now live at Gallery One, gathering ten evocative works that explore the quiet drama of light, form, and mystery. From Moon Shadow to Autumn Shadows in Tuscany, the exhibit moves through shifting atmospheres where stillness feels charged and every silhouette hints at a story. Visit Gallery One in Ocean View, DE now through October 27 to experience this richly varied collection of shadow‑driven artistry.

We love the Farmer’s Market!

DOVER, WE SEE YOU!

The Downtown Dover Farmers Market has officially reached 5,000 followers, and we couldn’t have done it without YOU!

Thank you to every vendor, customer, partner, volunteer, community leader, and supporter who has helped us build something special right here in Dover.

This isn’t just a farmers market — it’s a growing community, a platform for local businesses, and a place for Dover to come together.

We’re just getting started.

5,000 strong… and the best is still ahead!

News birders can use!

The Loockerman Street improvement upgrades are something we have been interested in since the inception. Tree removal was of a major concern and hope there are less trees to be removed. It has taken decades for that to be the shady street as more and more trees are gone and nothing replanted. Please join in the meetings and offer input as the downtown area has many historic sites and considerations.

What’s next for Downtown Dover? Come see for yourself.

Join the Downtown Dover Partnership for a Community Open House on Tuesday, September 22 from 4:30–6:30 PM at The Hive on Loockerman.

Get an inside look at progress on the Downtown Dover Mobility Center, Governor’s Avenue mixed-use redevelopment, Loockerman Street improvements, EPA updates, transportation and redevelopment projects underway, plus a sneak peek at the latest updates to Capital City 2030: Transforming Downtown Dover!

This is your opportunity to see what’s taking shape, learn more about the projects moving forward, ask questions, and share your input.

Our Delaware Inland Bays are part of the Chesapeake Bay Estuary. We have many avid birdwatchers all around the areas as we have such an active migratory path here along the Delmarva Peninsula and such a rich habitat. Please do whatever you can to help voice concern and save any and all environmental acts that protect our natural regional settings. State regulations can only do so much and more far reaching efforts are always required.
