Join us to celebrate excellence and innovation in historic preservation!
The annual Doris Duke Preservation Awards, a joint program of the Newport Restoration Foundation and the City of Newport, encourages excellence in historic preservation by recognizing exemplary preservation, restoration, and rehabilitation projects as well as education and advocacy initiatives that have taken place throughout Newport County.

It’s the dog days of summer! Join us and our community partner The Potter League for Animals for a dog’s day out with the Great Elephant Migration at “Ruff” Point. Bring along your dog to visit the elephants at Rough Point before the herd continues their migration. We will have a photo booth for your puppy to pose with their favorite pachyderm.
