History, Music Converge at Friend of Folk Concerts.

Live music will fill the air at The Old State House in Dover on October 9, 7:30-8:30 p.m. when Delaware Friends of Folk kicks off the 13th season of their annual concert series hosted by the Division of Historical and Cultural Affairs (HCA).

Free to the public, these shows feature local and regional artists representing a range of folk, acoustic and percussive styles with a variety of musical instruments. While the Old State House, Dover’s first permanent capital building, is best known for its tours, educational programs and historic, commemorative events, this special concert series offers attendees an intimate evening of song and music for the ages. Join the Friends of Folk Concerts this month and beyond.

The nonprofit organization received a grant from the Kent County Fund for the Arts to support this six-show season that begins in October.

🎶 What a way to close out Fort Folk Fest 2026! A huge thank you to everyone who joined us Friday night at Fort DuPont for our final Fort Folk Fest of the year, featuring Red Smith. We couldn’t have asked for a better evening of live music, community, and beautiful fall weather at the Fort.

Thank you to Red Smith for a fantastic performance, and to everyone who came out, brought a chair, spent the evening with us, and supported live music at Fort DuPont throughout the season.

We’re also incredibly grateful to our supporters, the Delaware Division of the Arts and Gateway Garden Center , for helping make this year’s concert series possible.
That’s a wrap on Fort Folk Fest 2026. Thank you for being part of it! 💛
