2025 Audience Award Announced!

With almost 500 people weighing in on their favorite preservation story, the Audience Award goes to our friends Matthew and Carly Callahan, who won the Homeowner Award for their work in restoring their Greek-Revival home in Westerly.
The Callahans' home (c. 1840) was thoughtfully restored to ensure that it can be enjoyed for generations to come. The family hopes that their work to preserve this architectural gem will inspire others in Westerly to do the same.
A tremendous congratulation to the Callahan family and all the 2025 Rhody Awardees.
