Still at East Point

East Point Lighthouse may be closed for now, caught in a contract and lease dispute between its longtime volunteer caretakers and the State of New Jersey—but one thing is certain: it’s still there.
Standing proudly along the Delaware Bay, the lighthouse keeps its place on the shoreline, its red roof bright against the sky and water moving all around it. In Still at East Point, layers of wool and natural fiber capture the windswept coast, rolling blue water, tangled greens, and the unmistakable character of this beloved New Jersey landmark.
This piece has a little resilience, and maybe a little humor too. Doors may be closed, agreements may be unsettled, but East Point Lighthouse remains exactly where it has always been—watching the water, weathering the storms, and, yes… Still at East Point.
