Join us to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the Providence Tea Party, an iconic moment in Rhode Island’s Revolutionary history. This event will honor the bold act of resistance by Rhode Island women who burned British tea in 1775, a key precursor to the American Revolution.
The ceremony will feature a press conference with local leaders and historians, reflecting on the event’s significance and Rhode Island’s early role in the fight for independence. The celebration will also highlight the power of community engagement and artistic expression in preserving this pivotal moment.
