The Rhode Island Historical Society is a privately-endowed membership organization focused on collecting, preserving, and sharing Rhode Island’s history. Based in Providence, it maintains an extensive archive and artifacts, including thousands of books, manuscripts, photographs, maps, and motion-picture film, and operates historic properties such as the John Brown House and the Aldrich House, both designated National Historic Landmarks. The organization also manages regional museums like the Museum of Work and Culture in Woonsocket and runs educational programs through the Newell D. Goff Education Center, including workshops, lectures, films, and walking tours, while actively supporting history education through teacher training initiatives. Its activities span exhibits, community events, and programs that aim to engage the public with Rhode Island’s past. In recent years, the society has formed partnerships with other archival institutions to digitize and provide access to historical records, such as Old Stone Bank Records and collaboration with the New England Historic Genealogical Society.
