New Cultural Arts Center in Dover

Sankofa Cultural Center Website

The Sankofa Cultural Arts Center has opened in Dover providing space for the City Cultural League.

The new building will include room for activities ranging from music and dance to the arts.

Ruben Salters who founded the league told WBOC that he had been working hard over the years to make the structure come to fruition.

A year and a half ago ground was broken.

It cost nearly a million dollars which mainly was provided through donations and fundraisers.  

The facility official opened its doors this past weekend.
