Conant Avenue
Conant Avenue by Emily Gordon ’21
Emily Gordon ’21 was on an assignment for her internship with Rhode Island Sea Grant—taking photos of public access points for the organization’s shoreline access app. It was a spring day in 2021 at the Conant Avenue right-of-way in Narragansett, and she was moved by the light and the waves.
“I remember watching the sun glisten off the rocks, turning them beautiful shades of green, yellow, and blue each time the roaring waves pulled away.”
Gordon graduated from URI in 2021 with a degree in communication and media studies. She is a marketing coordinator at McCourt Construction Co. and works as a freelance photographer. She had a photo featured in Architectural Digest, and has recently added drone photography to her skill set.
