The Lightship Overfalls, a National Historic Landmark, is one of just eight remaining floating lighthouses open to the public as a museum. Funds raised at these events help to preserve and maintain the Lightship Overfalls in Canalfront Park, and support the educational activities of the newly expanded American Lightship Museum.
