Lippitt Lab

Every third Saturday from May through December, the Lippitt House Museum is transformed into a laboratory for exploring history. Through activities, demonstrations, discussions, and first-person interpretation, visitors investigate the Victorian era in Providence and the lives of the Lippitt family. Each month’s Lippitt Lab will revolve around a theme and examine historical questions through hands-on learning, designed to make history accessible for visitors of all ages. Lippitt Lab is sponsored by the Thayer Street District Management Authority.  The remaining lab sessions are: Back-to-School (9/17), Politics in the 19th Century (10/15), Spotlight on Victorian Women (11/19)
