On February 13 Trudy Coxe, our Chief Executive Officer & Executive Director will be the first Speaker in a series celebrating the Seamen’s Church Institute of Newport Centennial.

Coxe’s lecture, “A Shared Legacy: Newport and the Preservation Society, 1945 – 2019,” is about how the creation of the Preservation Society came down to the efforts of a small group of women and men, led by summer resident Katherine Warren, to save Hunter House. In their own small way this group sought to thwart the movement that saw colonial houses and buildings as eyesores and impediments to a healthy future for Newport. Saving Hunter House from demolishment would be the first of many collaborations between the Preservation Society, other local institutions and concerned residents over the ensuing decades to strengthen the Newport community. This presentation will provide examples of collaborations over the years that were designed to make Newport a better place to live and work. seamensnewport #newportri #preservationsocietyofnewportcounty #newport_mansions
