About DNP

We are Newark, Delaware.

We are Delaware’s college town, where new faces and historic places combine to provide our visitors with diverse experiences around every corner.

We are rich in cultural offerings that enliven downtown through our Arts Alliance, Mid-Atlantic Ballet, Chapel Street Community Theater, and multiple music venues.

We are an eclectic blend of businesses. Whether a designer jeweler who has served the community for over a century or a comic shop, located on Main Street or on Elkton Road, we offer something for everyone.

We feed not only the mind but the body. In a place where hip meets historic, there are over 60 restaurants constantly providing visitors with new flavors to enjoy plus a unique food cooperative that has been serving the community for 35 years.

We are the culture and the class. We are the future and the past. We are the best of both a college town and a hometown.

We are Newark, and it’s a new day, every day.
