The rolling anniversary of our country’s founding is already underway! Rhode Island is poised to take center stage in 2022 with the 250th anniversary of the attack on the HMS Gaspee. Learn how your organization can join RI 250, a statewide effort to amplify the state’s important role in the founding of our country and leverage tourism and outreach opportunities presented by this important anniversary. Sarah Zurier of the RI Historical Preservation & Heritage Commission and Lane Sparkman of the RI Department of State will talk about Rhode Island’s 250th Commission, and special guest Shawn McBurney, from America 250—the national semiquincentennial organization—will share information about plans across the country.
