Naming the Houses: A Community Panel Discussion

November 4 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 PM

Community Event, ROUGH POINT MUSEUM
Plan a Visit / Calendar of Events / Naming the Houses: A Community Panel Discussion

Who decides how to name a house? And can one name tell a whole house’s history? Join us for a panel-led discussion of the naming conventions on historic house properties. We will use examples from NRF’s Preservation Properties to frame the discussion and invite you to join the conversation. This event is FREE for all.

This event is FREE for all, but we recommend that you register in advance here.

Naming the Houses is made possible in part through funding support from Rhode Island Humanities, an independent state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. RI Humanities seeds, supports, and strengthens public history, cultural heritage, civic education, and community engagement by and for all Rhode Islanders.
