The Blackstone Valley Historical Society (BVHS) is a non-profit organization dedicated to the exploration, preservation, and appreciation of the Blackstone Valley heritage. Located in Lincoln, Rhode Island, BVHS focuses on the history of the six communities that make up the Blackstone Valley: Pawtucket, Central Falls, Lincoln, Cumberland, North Smithfield, and Woonsocket. With a wide range of exhibits, lectures, and events, BVHS offers visitors the opportunity to delve into the rich history of the region, from the fascinating stories of local landmarks like the Providence Biltmore Hotel to significant events such as the train wreck in Valley Falls that led to the creation of standard time and time zones in the United States. Run of the Mill Productions, in partnership with BVHS, is a unique organization dedicated to documenting and preserving historic buildings and homes in Rhode Island. Using cutting-edge drone photography and traditional methods, Run of the Mill captures the stories of both existing structures and new sites that are being built. With a mission to prevent the loss of Rhode Island's architectural heritage, Run of the Mill works closely with the National Park Service, RI Housing, and Pawtucket Central Falls Development to ensure that these important pieces of history are not forgotten.Generated from the website
