Preserving History, One Oyster at a Time

Oysters on the Beach raises money in support of the Warren Heritage Foundation

Posted

It’s no secret that Rhode Island is home to some of the best seafood around, and now you’ve got the chance to indulge in Rhody delicacies all for a good cause. At Oysters on the Beach, presented by the Warren Heritage Foundation on September 10, you’ll sample a bounty of locally sourced oysters while supporting historic preservation efforts in Warren.

In addition to oysters, the event will include catered meals from 195 Franklin and a plethora of wine, beer and signature cocktails to enjoy. When you’re getting your fill of delicious food, you can take a turn on the dance floor or relax with a gorgeous view of the Warren River. There will also be raffles and auctions featuring artwork from local artists.

All proceeds from the event will provide funds for the restoration of historic sites, such as the steeple of the Methodist Church. Marcia Blount, President of Warren Heritage Foundation, is extremely excited about the project’s success so far. “We’re proud of what we have achieved as a community to save the buildings that make Warren unique,” says Marcia. “At our fourth gala, we’ll come together to celebrate positive momentum to save local landmarks, and look toward exciting next steps.”
