The museum could be so much more! Located right across from the amazing Roger Williams Zoo, the building and exhibits are in sore need of renovation. Investment by the City and State could turn this great turn of the century facility into a true gem for locals and visitors alike.

This place has interesting exhibits and is only 2 to enter. We spent just over an hour and was glad we took the time to visit.
