Historic New England Presents: Monumental Providence

Thursday, April 27, 6:30 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.
Saylesville Meeting House, 374 Great Road, Lincoln, RI.
Reception and book signing to follow at Arnold House, 487 Great Road, Lincoln, R.I.
Explore the humanities, history, arts, and even Greek mythology through the public art of Providence. Join father and daughter co-authors Paul and Heather Anne Caranci for an illustrated talk on their new book, Monumental Providence: Legends of History in Sculpture, Statuary, Monuments, and Memorials.
Find out how they assembled a self-guided tour of each magnificent statue, monument, memorial, and sculpture in Providence. Their unique guide presents all 100 pieces of public art in Providence and explains both the motivation behind a sculpture’s placement in the city and the artist’s intent in creating the piece.
