Lit from the Wall: How We Built a Custom Wall-Hanging Marquee Sign for Proclamation Ale Company

When Proclamation Ale Company came to us, they had a clear vision: a sign that felt as bold and authentic as the beers they brew. What we delivered was a large-scale wall-hanging marquee sign in their signature script font — the word "proclamation" glowing in warm white light, mounted directly onto a reclaimed wood plank wall inside their Warwick, Rhode Island brewery. Below it, the words "ale company" are rendered in flat metal cut-out letters with a teal underline accent, unlit and intentionally understated — letting the illuminated script above do the heavy lifting.

A Rhode Island Brewery Built on Authenticity

Proclamation Ale Company, known locally as PROC, has been one of Rhode Island's most beloved craft breweries since it was founded in 2014 by Dave Witham in West Kingston, RI. Starting on a nano system with one purpose — to bring genuinely exciting, creative beer to a local market that was hungry for it — PROC quickly outgrew its original space and relocated to a 15,000 square foot facility in Warwick in 2017, just a few blocks from TF Green Airport.

Dave passed away in December 2020, but his vision lives on through his wife Lori and the entire PROC family. Today the brewery is woman-owned and community-driven, operating one of the largest oak aging and mixed fermentation programs in the state, with multiple 30-barrel oak foeders for aging and blending. Their taproom features a large bar, pinball, shuffleboard, a video arcade, and an outdoor patio with a firepit. Visit them at proclamationaleco.com.

The Sign: Wall-Hanging Script with Flat Metal Accents

The "proclamation" wordmark is a wall-hanging illuminated sign built in their exact brand script, with standard incandescent filament bulbs providing the warm glow that makes the letters pop against the dark wood backdrop. The "ale company" text below is fabricated as flat metal cut-outs with a teal painted accent line — matching the brand's color palette precisely. This combination sign style — illuminated script paired with flat metal accents — is one of our most requested styles for breweries and restaurants.
