We've heard @SenWhitehouse read his Gaspee poem on the Senate floor - and now he has seen the Gaspee documents up close. The Gaspee Affair is just one piece of Rhode Island history that we could display in a permanent exhibit space. Thank you for visiting the State Archives.

Secretary Amore was in Providence yesterday for the annual Columbus Day Parade. It's always an exciting experience celebrating the culture on Federal Hill - from the community, to the music, and of course, the food!
