Roanoke Island Festival Park blends hist

Roanoke Island Festival Park blends history, education, and the arts in a lively celebration of Roanoke Island as the Birthplace of English America. Explore the island's unique role in history from the time before England's first attempt to coloni ze North America in the late 16th century to the early 20th century. Climb aboard Elizabeth II, a representative 16th century sailing vessel, where garbed interpreters spin tales of treacherous sea voyages. See The Legend of Two Path, a docu-drama about the Native Americans of Roanoke Island. View interactive exhibits in the 8,500 square foot Roanoke Adventure Museum. Take in a sunset concert or performance at the outdoor Pavilion or a free art show in The Gallery. Shop for treasures in the Museum Store. Picnic on the expansive lawns, or perhaps encounter a "ghost" from the 16th century on the boardwalks.
