State Archives exhibit highlights historic RI curiosities

A new exhibit at the Rhode Island State Archives offers the public a unique opportunity to view remarkable and curious items spanning hundreds of years of our state's history. These items range from examples of colonial money, both authentic and counterfeit, to records of piracy trials, and even H.P. Lovecraft's death certificate.

The exhibit will run through the end of August.

The Rhode Island State Archives, a division of the Rhode Island Department of State, is open to the public Monday through Friday, 8:30AM to 4:30PM at 337 Westminster Street in downtown Providence. Validated parking available next door at InTown Parking.
