The Art of Roger Williams: An Exhibit

The Art of Roger Williams: Providence at 375 will feature three hundred years of Williamsonia from the John Hay's Special Collections, the John Carter Brown Library, the Providence City Archives, and the personal collections of Al Klyberg and Russell DeSimone.

Among the objects on display will be a rare and significant Eliot Bible, a Bible translated into the Natick dialect of the region's Algonquin tribes to aid in the propagation of the scriptures. This particular Bible is likewise believed to have belonged to Roger Williams, and is inscribed with shorthand attributed to him.
