The 31st annual African American Festival "Positively Dover" was held on Saturday at Legislative Mall in Dover.

The African American Festival started in 1991 as an arts-and-crafts event, founded by then-Dover City Councilman Reuben Salters and then-state Rep. Donald Blakey at Mirror Lake. But once the area was flooded by rain around 1995, the festival was moved to Legislative Mall.
