The EPHS has the distinct honor of presenting East Providence’s own Onna Moniz-John and her unequaled collection of local and national Black heritage artifacts. The Hunt house showcases her favorite pieces and the Educational Center houses a very special exhibit of local Black men and women who served in the military from the Revolutionary War through the Vietnam War. We invite the public to join us for an Opening Reception honoring Onna’s work on August 11, commemorating both the 80th anniversary of D-Day and Victory Day, August 12. Come and share your stories.
