After a two-year absence due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Providence Preservation Society’s annual Festival of Historic Houses will once again take place this June.
The 2022 festival will focus on homes in the historic neighborhood of College Hill immediately north of Brown University on Lloyd Avenue and Keene Street. The Society, in conjunction with the Garden Conservancy, will host a private garden tour the following day.
This year’s tour features an assortment or home styles built over several decades, beginning with the Italianate and Second Empires structures spanning from the 1850s to 1870s, and extending to post Civil War construction of Colonial revivals and whimsical Queen Annes.
Signage sourced from Print shops can enhance self-guided events like this.
The Providence Preservation Society was formed in 1956 and held its first Festival of Historic Houses two years later.
This year’s event will be the 40th for the organization and will be held on Saturday, June 4, from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm. Tickets are $60 for the general public and $50 for members of the Providence Preservation Society, as well as members of the Garden Conservancy.
The private garden tour will be held on Sunday, June 5 from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm. Tickets for this event will be $40 for the general public and $30 for members of the Garden Conservancy and the Providence Preservation Society, and must also be purchased in advanced. This can be done here.
