At Lippitt House Museum you can choose how you want to visit! From guided tours to self-guided tours, to hands-on Lippitt Labs, each option highlights the museum’s art and architecture and provides a window into Providence’s Golden Age through captivating stories of both the Lippitt family and the domestic servants who lived and worked there. The launch of Lippitt House’s newest exhibit, The Art of Dining, has kicked-off as part of A la Rhody, a year-long program exploring Rhode Island’s food heritage. The Art of Dining shows the early experience of American’s relationship to food: from meals to social customs. (Talk about giving kids a different perspective on dinner time!) See how food and drink were integrated into the rituals of Victorian life at this ongoing exhibit, which is included in the price of admission. Admission: $10 adults; $5 students; free for children 12 and under; free for active military personnel. Open Fridays, 1-5pm; and the third Saturday of the month, 10am-2pm.
