The Rhode Island Historical Society – The Rhode Island Historical Society is dedicated to collecting, preserving, and sharing Rhode Island's history.

Celebrating Womens History in Rhode Island

The story of Rhode Island is filled with the stories of groundbreaking women. We share these stories in many ways, including in our publications and our social media accounts. This month, we are sharing a list of resources including programs, educational tools, and articles to highlight the important women who have changed Rhode Island and the world. This page will continue to be updated throughout the month of March. If you have suggestions of resources to be added to this page, please email communications@rihs.org.
