Henry Law Park is perhaps the finest area in Dover New Hampshire for outdoor community activities. The Rotary Arts Pavilion, a large amphitheater at the intersection of Henry Law Ave and Washington, is the venue used by many concerts and events, including the Cocheco Arts Festival. The park is in front of the Cocheco River, providing a peaceful place to take a walk, launch a canoe, or go fishing. The park has been visited by the Piscataqua Gundalow Project, and is used for various events year-round including the Pet-A-Palooza, the Apple Harvest, and the Farmer’s Market.
Included in the park are picnic shelters, benches, a children’s playground, many walkways, and a large open grass area. Near the park is the Rotary Skate Park and the Cocheco Foot Bridge.
