Harriet Tubman's "Tilly Escape to Freedom!"

Mar 7, 2026

Join Seaford Museum Curator Jim Blackwell as he tells the story of the 1856 “Tilly Escape to Freedom” through Seaford. The tour will start in the museum’s lobby and proceed down to the Oyster House Park, along the river, and then to the top of Gateway Park. It is an enjoyable half-hour walk along our beautiful Nanticoke River.

Come see our town’s history and walk in the footsteps of an Eastern Shore legend, Harriet Tubman.
