EAST PROVIDENCE — Thankfully, the threat of inclement weather never materialized, leaving the third edition of "the looff: East Providence Arts Festival," sponsored by the East Providence Arts Council, to go off as planned Saturday, Aug. 12, at the site of the historic Looff Carousel on the grounds of Crescent Park.

East Providence Post and eastbayri.com contributing photographer Rupert Whiteley shot the accompanying gallery of pictures from the day's events.

Some photos will also appear in the August 17 free print edition of The Post.

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
