The Redwood Library and Athenaeum, founded in 1747, is America's oldest continuous lending library and the first purpose-built library in the nation. As a historic cultural institution, it has served as Newport's intellectual core and a civic learning hub for nearly three centuries, reflecting the ideals of ancient Athenian culture and philosophy.

Housed in the first public Neoclassic building in the United States, the Redwood Library features Rhode Island's first art gallery and maintains a commitment to providing access to a vast collection of books, periodicals, and special collections. The library also hosts a variety of exhibitions and events, fostering community engagement and appreciation for the humanities.
