The Armory Needs Your Help
to Expand

The need for a community room (to accommodate 30 people) and more museum space has become necessary at this point in the Armory's life. A capital campaign will begin soon, and it is hoped that individuals, businesses, & grant makers will assist with the funding. An estimated $1.4 million will be needed to renovate the cellar with its huge square footage and 14-foot ceilings.

Architect Martha Werefels (of Durkee Brown Viveiros & Werenfels) has been working on details.  This is an enormous project.  If you would like to help raise consciousness of the need for renovation and also raise funds, please contact the Armory at 401-596-8554 or email westerlyarmory@aol.com.  It would be a boost to the spirits of those working on the project if people would step forward with contributions. Donations are tax-deductible.
