Cumberland is a town located in northeast Rhode Island in the lower Blackstone Valley. It also lies within the John H. Chafee, Blackstone River Valley National Heritage Corridor, a New England historic national park area. As of the 2010 census, the population of Cumberland was 33,506. The town of Cumberland is the site of what has become known in history as "Nine Men's Misery," where nine colonists were tortured and killed by the Narragansett Indian tribe during King Philip's War. A stone memorial constructed in 1676 marks the site and is believed to be the oldest "veterans memorial" in the United States. Cumberland is the home of several other things of historical significance. It was the site of iron works that made cannons and cannonballs for the French and Indian War, and a machine shop in Cumberland made the very first power looms for woolens in America. Additionally, Cumberland was the original location (and home today) of the Ann & Hope chain of discount department stores in America founded in 1955. Cumberland hosts the Arnold Mills Fourth of July Parade and Road Race each year and the popular Cumberlandfest is held the second weekend of August. The latter includes a carnival with rides, live entertainment and fireworks. Other attractions in Cumberland include the Blackstone River Theater, which hosts a variety of cultural events and sponsors the annual Summer Solstice Festival each year.
