POMHAM ROCKS MERCHANDISE AT LOOFF

A new collection of Pomham Rocks Lighthouse merchandise is now available. Show your pride in East Providence’s historic lighthouse by purchasing items at the Friends of Pomham Rocks Lighthouse booth at The Looff: East Providence Arts Festival on August 12 from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. at Rose Larisa Park.

Included in the collection are 12-ounce ceramic mugs for $10 and absorbent, cork-backed coasters, which are sold individually for $4 or in boxed sets of four for $15. Also available are attractively carded round ceramic ornaments for $10 and boxed square cork-backed trivets or hot plates for $10.

Friends of Pomham Rock Lighthouse are currently raising funds to renovate the interior of The Lighthouse. All proceeds from the sale of the merchandise will be used for the renovation effort. If you are unable to attend the Arts Festival, you can purchase items locally by calling 401-433-3463.

Built in 1871, Pomham Rocks Lighthouse is the last surviving lighthouse in upper Narragansett Bay. It still serves as an aid to navigation and is listed on the National Register of Historical Places.
