Our mission is to restore a bit of our past to the City of Warwick by rebuilding the much-loved, historic carousel at Oakland Beach. Unlike other carousels around the country, ours is being designed and constructed entirely with volunteers—dedicated people who are engaged in activities such as drawing and carving horses and chariots, painting murals, and creating the beautiful ornamenta-tion similar to the art work that graced the original carousel.
The carousel’s building will resemble a screwpile lighthouse to complement its waterfront location. And once operating, the Oakland Beach Carousel foundation will dedicate the carousel’s net profits to a trust, which will assist qualified community groups throughout Warwick, who are working to help make our city a great place to live.
Won’t you join us in this exciting venture?
