Help Shape the Future of the Fort DuPont Theater

Friends of Fort DuPont is gathering community input to help shape the restoration and future use of the historic Fort DuPont Theater in Delaware City. We want to learn which performances and events would bring you to the theater and what features and amenities would make your visit welcoming and enjoyable.


Your responses will help guide future programming, visitor experience, comfort and accessibility priorities, and opportunities to celebrate Fort DuPont's history and local culture.

The survey takes approximately 7–9 minutes to complete. All responses are anonymous, and email addresses are not collected.
