Why do war memorials look as they do? How do we understand the designer’s intent, the foundryman’s art, and the historian’s interpretation of the spirit of the times surrounding each conflict? This walking tour presents and opportunity to see some of Rhode Island’s most well-known war memorials found here in Providence, lead by RIHS Tourism Services Manager Barbara Barnes.

$10 per person. For more information or to RSVP, please contact Barbara Barnes at 401-273-7507 x62 or bbarnes@rihs.org.
