Support the Oak Orchard Lighthouse Museum

The Oak Orchard Lighthouse Museum is a 501 (c) (3) not-for-profit organization provisionally chartered under the New York State Education Department, Board of Regents since November 2004 . This grass-roots, community fundraising effort relies solely on volunteers, fundraising revenue, and donations from the public for all phases of this project. Support has come from memberships, donations, grants, Buy-a-Brick program, and merchandise sales.

Monthly Meetings: The Board of Trustees of the Oak Orchard Lighthouse Museum meets at 6:30 PM on the third Wednesday of each month except December. Meetings are held at the Carlton Town Hall, 14341 Waterport Carlton Rd., and are open to the public.
