Join RI Seafood in "shellebrating" the 9th Annual Quahog Week! Join us for a FREE event at Narragansett Brewery (271 Tockwotton St. Providence, RI) on Thursday, May 15, from 5-7 PM.

Commercial harvesters from the RI Shellfishermen's Association will be shucking and serving complimentary little necks. Small bites will be provided by various RI Seafood partners.

This event is FREE and open to the public. Quahog Week (May 11-17) shines a light on our state's favorite local clam, the hard-working men and women who harvest them, and the vibrant local food industry that makes them available to consumers.

Quahogging has a rich history locally, supporting the livelihoods of hundreds of Rhode Island fishermen and women year-round as well as serving as a treasured pastime for Rhode Island families who enjoy digging their own. Demand for these delicious local clams swells in the summer months due, in large part, to the popularity of fresh-shucked littlenecks, clam cakes, and stuffies. But they also make the perfect fare for chowders, pastas, and other dishes year-round.

As part of the week-long celebration, restaurants will feature quahog-inspired specials on their menus, and participating markets will offer deals for those who enjoy cooking their own clam dishes at home. View the list at https://seafood.ri.gov/quahog-week
