This year, Portland hosts Hannaford's Lighthouses on Parade. For four months in the summer of 2003, over fifty ten-foot-tall lighthouses will be "on parade" throughout the Greater Portland area. Residents and tourists will pick up maps around the city and follow them to see the different lighthouses, each painted in a unique design. In the fall of 2003 the community will have the opportunity to see all the lighthouses in one location, and even better, to bid on the one they like best in the live auction. 100% of the proceeds from the live auction will benefit local charities, including Maine Center of Deafness, the Senator George J Mitchell Scholarship Research Institute, and the Cancer Community Center.
I have been selected by B&G Foods to design a lighthouse for their company B&M Beans of Portland, Maine. The theme for our lighthouse is "Postcards From Maine." I will update this page with new photos as the project progresses. -- Eleda |
