Initially settled by the Lenape Indians, a tribe known for its hospitality, New Hope is blessed with scenic beauty and serene landscapes. It has long been an attraction for artists who moved here and started what is now known as the art colony of New Hope.
A place where love, life, and friendship are celebrated, New Hope is a congenial community known for acceptance and inclusion. Up River Productions’ Embraceable You is an award-winning documentary film that gracefully captures the diversity of the Borough of New Hope and its reputation as an open-minded community. It is the spirit of those interviewed that makes this a haven for peaceful coexistence.
A one-square-mile town, New Hope is a welcoming and hospitable community where residents share the serenity and beauty of life here. We must work together to protect this unique and inclusive community.
