Party guests will sample all kinds of 1872-inspired delights, including samples of Rhode Island history-inspired ice creams created by Clementine’s, Like No Udder (dairy free), Three Sisters and the Wright Scoop. The Rhode Island Historical Society is hosting an epic, ice-cream-and-cherry-topped Bicentennial Jubilee on Saturday, June 11 from 1 to 4 p.m.
Rhode Island never got its due for kicking off the American Revolution, but the state will celebrate the 250th anniversary of the burning of the Gaspee in style.
